Hey guys! I'm new here! I'm looking to buy a new mod and haven't kept up with all of the new ones coming out. I'm currently using the 220w alien and baby beast tank, which I'm tired of so i just bought the cloud beast. Im looking for something close to the same size, maybe slightly bigger, but not too big as I have small hands. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Mm.. not really, unless you want to empty your wallet on a DNA mod. You might like a battle star because of the alternate shape, or you may hate it for the same reason. The alien 220 is still pretty current.
I was thinking of getting a new one because my alien is pretty hammered. It's been dropped and the battery cover doesn't stay on very well anymore and all the paint came off.
I would never give up on a mod that vapes good. A little paint and a rubber band, "reconditioned mod". Oh, welcome to the forum!
Poor you haven't bought the cloud thing then yet. My mistake. The alien does not have a great reputation for ruggedness.
Things that are reputed to hold up better than an alien but are of similar power and form factor:
Voopoo drag
Smoat Charon
At least two or 3 others who's names escape me ATM
Oh! Or for 6 bucks you can put a silicone sleeve on your alien. Instant makeover and protection from further drops
The Smoant Battlestar is of similar power to your alien but the finish is much better. I have the copper one and it looks as good as the day I got it. It is the only mod I use for 7 months so it's been through the ringer. Also a good idea to have a backup in case one breaks. So use the Battlestar everyday and if it breaks, which is very unlikely, you can go back to the alien.
How does the sigelei fuchai 213 plus hold up? The looks of it are nice, but what about ruggedness and funtionality
Welcome @Tara429
Sounds like you like most everything about your Alien, but may want something similar about the same size. You might take a look at the Smok GX2/4. Actually a bit smaller then the Alien (in dual battery configuration), some really nice colors and paint that seems quite durable (although I haven't dropped mine yet), same menu system, and a (IMHO) more solid battery cover. While it does have the option to use it in quad battery mode (really handy for great battery life when needed), many users including me are happy using it in dual battery mode for daily use.

I just took a look at it. I do like the style and size, and the fact you can do 2 or 4! Definitely going to keep this in mind. Thanks for the suggestion!
Sig Fuchai 2/3 and Smok G/X 2/4 are both said to have better quality paint. You can't go wrong with Smoant Battlestar or Charon. All of the above are comfortable in the hand. I have the Charon and like it, recently bought Think Vape Exus Ark and love the hand feel. Great mod.
A good wrap like from Jwrap can make a mod look even better than brand new. I've wrapped a few mods that the finish was fine on, but it just looked better with a wrap. Won't help you much if the battery door is janky.
I'm loath to usually recommend Wismec, but their new Sinuous 200, which I guess is their answer to the sometimes problematic Predator (the 510 falling out was sorta annoying) but the one thing they did change is center the 510, which IMO looks way better than to the side like the Predator. If it doesn't fall out, even better.
Other worthy choices as who can ever have too many mods would include the Smoant stuff like the Battlstar and Charon (with a touchscreen version to boot), as well as the new Vaporesso Revenger, which is getting good feedback too.

I can't help you with that mod because I've never used it. Generally speaking Sigelei mod are usually pretty decent but you may want to check some reviews on it to get a better impression or someone may chime in with their thoughts.
My 2¢,
Battlestar: Have heard great things about it from users here, haven't tried one myself. Maybe one day.
Revenger: Similar to the Alien although more durable finish due to the manufacturing method used. Smallish and fits nicely in the hand. Worked very well with Big Baby, Dead Rabbit, Limitless+ (although very tall with that) and Tesla Arrow. Of course should work well with just about any tank.
Voopoo Drag: Same features as Alien, can be bought in Metal or Resin. Not as comfortable as the Revenger in hand and heavier. Feels very sturdy. Attractive with nearly every tank I have.
I skimmed thread due to short anntention span this morning. Not enough coffee. If question asked and answered forgive me.

I use the VooPoo drag 157w resin mod. Looks amazing (dumb name haha) and it's by far the best regulated mod I have used.
