Bigfoot box mod by Cigreen? Any input?

[VHRB2014]

Its time for me to dabble into the double battery box, and this one seems to be everything I want.

Anyone using one and can report if it auto fires (Ala Cheery BOMBr) or has any other issue`s that I should consider prior to buying?

TIA,
Randall

I have a couple of them coming. I'll let you know if you didn't grab one yet.

I've had mine for close to a month now and it has been 100% flawless. I'm really impressed with this mod. I would never have thought that a mod in this price range could have such great build quality and performance. After some research and a handful of reviews, I decided to take a chance on it - I'd been wanting a 'pure mechanical', dual battery mech. I'm really glad I pulled the trigger on it. The button on it is very comfortable and it has very nice action - great for all day use. It's also very easy to adjust the throw. I also picked up 2 brand new pairs of VTC5s and married them up. I rotate them in it throughout the day. I've used RDAs with builds ranging from ~.45 down to ~.07. It never gets the slightest bit hot, never mis-fires and I've never had it auto-fire on me (though given its all aluminum construction, you probably could try to bridge pos & neg somehow between an rda and the body of the mod. I haven't had it happen, but if you try hard enough, I'm sure it'd be possible). Also, with the adjustable 510, every device I've used on it has sat flush and made a solid connection. For the price, I really don't think you'd be able to find anything else in this league. Hell, I've paid 3 times as much for devices half as good. Just my opinions, of course - but I'm pretty happy with it.

I got both today. Holy Chit ! The black one I got from Grotto Vapor is reversed threaded at the 510 pin. Running at .14 ohm on the Lycan RDA, and it hits like a dream. I can't believe how thick this aluminum is. Makes my REO feel like a damned toy. 45 bucks is a steal. Well built box.

Ya, I went with my gut and have it already. It does hit great, clouds baby! I love the way they made the connection, at the negative side so its pretty well isolated. So far mine has not missed a beat whatsoever and I`m running a .18 on it most of the time. Its nice to vape like a sugar factory getting ready to explode and it stays cool at all times.

I was never crazy about that switch design... square switch + round 510 makes for a small contact patch. Lots of users report arcing eventually.

But... Have you seen the Cigreen ABS V2? It has a much better mechanical switch with a huge surface area for the current. $48 at Vivid Smoke. They should all have switches like this.

Maybe there was a re-design of the switch mechanism & contacts points at some point? Mine (my Bigfoot) has a fairly large flat surface contacting another fairly large flat surface - I don't see how it could physically ever arc (unless it somehow became pitted or gouged). I do like the look of that ABS mech tho - and the position of the switch - might make a nice additional mech box...price is right!
