    I bought a vision spinner battery when I was in England last month, love it it's a massive one and usually lasts me 2 days on full charge but the top of it has been popping out exposing the wires. It still works grand I just shove it back in, to me it seems like maybe where it was glued or whatever held it in has dissolved so it won't stick. Does anyone know someplace that may be able to repair it? I don't want to glue it myself as id be afraid of either damaging it further or somehow inhaling the glue fumes!

    If it were me I'd be throwing that battery away and buying a new one. I for one wouldn't want to be around if that thing shorts whilst you're taking a drag.

    As long as the wires are still soldered in place it's fine,a little dab of superglue will hold it.
    My wife is always dropping hers and this has happened to few of the batteries but it's a simple fix.

    The wires in it are perfect, I really don't want to just throw it away it was expensive enough and I haven't had it that long. I might try the superglue and see how it goes! Is there any place that does repairs oh them?

    if The wires are okay then super glue away. Be careful not to get glue on The wires though as some glues will insulate.

    Same happened to me...seems to be a design fault.
    The top is pressed into the larger hole, glue probably wont last long, best bet is to insert a small piece of metal (wire or something) between both pieces as you firmly press it against a hard surface l, the harder it is to press it back the harder it will be for it to pop out again....honestly though you may be safer investing in another brand/design and or sending it back for a refund.

    I think it would just be more worth it to purchase a new one! Better safe than sorry!
