Default The power of 406(401)

Thank the gods all around the world for superglue!! is there anything this stuff can't fix ?? From school shoes to cracked helmet visors, from dicky watch links to my new speedlight.... LOL. i just bought a generic flash for my camera (i don't have the money for an SB-800) and i get home, halfway through taking it out of the box.. and bang it slips from the box finaly and goes flying towards the floor at 9.81meters per second per second. didn't do much damage, just made the casing come open ever so slightly and the battery door kept randomly coming open. so i get the Loctite 406 (you can use 401 too) out ten seconds later its fixed =]*

i would have been inclined to take it back - definitely under warranty. But hey, if superglue does the trick and its working - no worries
