I have a common Duracell flashlight that uses two AA batteries. One of the two orange buttons on either side that hold the battery and lens compartments section together is broken off. Anyone got a clever idea how to repair it short of using tape or replacing the flashlight?
Hot melt glue gun
You should buy one, it`s one of those tools that you`ll wonder how you managed without.

Epoxy.
Goop, maybe.
Just buy one, they're dirt cheap and have all sorts of uses. I found mine years ago sitting next to the trash dumpster at the apartment complex I lived in, I use it all the time.
I kept the first AA Maglite I bought for something like ten years, despite the fact that I 'tried' to close the car door on it the day I bought it. I finally lost it, but had several more by then.
These days one of them soldiers on, with a $5 LED conversion. Unless I let batteries corrode inside, it should last forever...works for about
90% of what I need a flashlight for.jak
I need a glue gun. What dumpster was that?
If you are inclined to email me for some reason, remove NOPSAM :-)
