Switch

[HDBanger]

My switch finally died on my chuck. I sent a msg through the main website contact link, but no reply. I need the address to send it to for repairs. I tried to clean it using the rubbing alcohol trick, no go. I am not afraid to solder myself, but I would need to know the exact switch to pick up, and how to get the end-cap off my chuck without wrecking it. How long does it take to get a switch replaced and sent back? I only have a usb pass-thru as backup, so I am now stuck to my desk when I vape.

hi BANGER, the common return rate is 7 - 10 days I believe. I just sent mine in a week and a half ago with $8 for return shipping. You will also need to send a note with your address. With my note I asked a question about a switch that he may use so I can replace it myself in the future. I'll keep you posted, check your PM's...

If you didn't get a reply, I didn't get it. However the above post is correct. Send it in and I'll take care of it.

Mad Vapes has an awesome replacement switch that is just as strong as the Chuck for $6.49. You do have to make the hole a little bigger but other than that its an easy fix.

Here are links to all the "care and feeding of a Chuck" threads in this subforum. The Radio Shack switch that will work is in one of these (along with step-by-step directions.)

But, if you don't mind being Chuckless for a week, I'd send it to Jeff.

Long time no see Chuckleheads.
Glad to see this post, I was just stopping by to see if I could get my switches fixed.
Seems like all my Chucks picked the same day to fritz on me.

Ill send Jeff a PM.

Sometimes the switch is not dead. In fact, most of the time it's not dead.
You should try filling the battery compartment with liquid contact cleaner, and blow hard into the compartment and work switch whilst blowing.
The air pressure forces the liquid through the chuck and restores the switch operably.
I have had chucks here that were stone dead...and managed to revive the lil beggers (with a u) each time.
