Hello everyone! Greetings!
I love this forum and learned a lot so far. I would like to thank you all for your contribution! You made my first vapman days easier
I made a small guide about repairing your vapman lighter if your piezo igniter(spark maker) is not working.
It was so sad and frustrating when my lighter stopped working even though i had a spare one
So let's dig in:
We only need a cheap lighter with long stem to take the new piezo system from,the small screwdriver your vapman comes with and a pair of tweezers:
Let's start by disassembling the vapman lighter.Take off the 4 screws securing the metal top part to the bottom plastic tank.You need to pull down the metal part a little bit in the front so the button can be released upwards:
Remove the button and the small metal part on the top of the piezo igniter then lift up the metal head part so you have access to remove the black tube that feeds your nozzle with butane. Make it like this:
With your tweezers remove gently the black tube from bottom tank part.Then remove the piezo from the housing.Just be careful not to lose the black spacer that is under the piezo igniter,you need that.Then separate the metal head from the plastic tank just by pulling them apart. Now your lighter is in two pieces:
Pull the piezo system to remove the cable from the metal head(if it doesn't get out it's because the cable at the end is bend up so pull harder or make it straight if you want to be gentle).
Now we need to work on the cheap lighter to take out the new piezo system with it's long cable.It's the one we will use to replace the broken one.Very easy procedure depending on the lighter.And you also experience the fun of braking/taking apart stuff
You just need one lighter with a slightly big cable so you can put it all back easier(barbeque/fireplace lighter).
Put the piezo igniters side by side to check that the full length of the new piezo system matches the original one(not the cable,the housing)and make adjustments if needed using spacers(the one i got has the same length):
So now only the assembly is left.Get the wire of the piezo through the nozzle of the lighter and bend it down like the original one giving you the spark close to the center.Also be aware of the length of the metal end of the cable.In the blue wire it is very long as you can see above so i cut it because the spark was going to the metal head(housing):
Put the metal head on the bottom/tank part like in the picture underneath so you can put back the black tube carefully with your tweezers(it is the only important part for your safety,be sure that the black tube is fitted all the way in on both sides so you don't have the chance of leaking butane):
Put the metal head in place to the bottom part. Put the piezo igniter in it's housing. Fold your extra wire around if needed or if it's really big and you wanna do a professional repair cut it shorter.Now you need to make sure your spark is going in the right place.Look the lighter from the front side and make sure the metal part isn't to long and it is long enough to almost go to the center,you don't want it to be touching,just floating around the middle.You want the spark going in the center.You need to make sure you have fire before you put it all back and now it's the time.Use your tweezers to bend/move around your cable end until it works.
Now pull the metal head a little bit in front again so you can put back the button and don't forget the small metal part going on top of the piezo(without it you might be having problems):
Put the four screws back and you are ready. That's it! Your vapman lighter is new again and ready for fun use
Now i feel my vapman lighter is for a lifetime!
So get your broken lighter from drawer and give it a go.
The white piezo ingiter you see underneath is already repaired once and it's the original one.
The original piezo after a month of use just stopped clicking(making sound),i was pressing it to the end and nothing was happening. So i have a fix for that too.
You need to take apart your igniter(two parts)by pushing in the two small buttons on the sides and pulling it out the same time,probably with the help of a friend because it's difficult with only two hands. Now just replace the top part,the hammer part(on the picture underneath it is the black part) with one from another igniter. I don't really know if all igniters have interchangeable hammer parts but for me it worked with the first one i tried :
As you can see i found one with a round end and it worked just fine!
Of course it's easier to just replace the whole thing but you have the ability to fix a non clicking piezo also.
After that repair my lighter wasn't firing up every time because i couldn't pull the cable to go close to the center so i didn't have good spark every time.I had fire every two or three clicks and that's why you read this now. With the new piezo my lighter is working flawlessly!
I just had to go and find a long cheap lighter.
Long live and vape on!!
very very happy

I thought I would give it a try on my middle section....
I'm sticking to hashetone for now, though. It's very easy to make and I'd wager there wouldn't be as significant a loss of cannabinoids as there are doing the "Rosin Technique" - plus, I like a nice terp profile.
