So while I was at school today, I pulled my earbuds out of my pocket and realized that the driver had separated from the rest of the body. I was going to just go and reglue it with some super glue or gorilla glue or something of that sort, when I realized that A) There was some exposed copper wiring and PCB inside and B) I've never reglued anything electric, so I didn't know what I could use. I googled around and read that people generally use polyurethane glue for electronic components, but I wasn't entirely sure if that had anything to do with this, and I wanted a second opinion before I went out and bought special glue when I have Gorilla Glue and Loctite Super Glue here. Does anyone know if those are safe to use? (You can't really see in the picture, but there's a small PCB attached to the driver, and copper wire going from that to the rest of the wire)

 

Thank you guys!!

If they still work, just use a little glue of whatever.

Just make sure that you don't get glue of the driver itself or it might impair your listening experience.
