I use my coolfire2 out in public and I have actually gotten people who comment and say they love how it looks.. Obviously I don't plan on taking it on a plane..

but I did think it would be funny to unscrew the drip tip and pull it out (like a pin) and toss it to a dumb TSA agent and start counting to 3 - just to see his response..

(I'm sure jail would be totally worth the story I could tell afterwards)

I agree.. but don't think it was meant to be used outside in public..

Sort of like this one..

This one sure comes in handy in case of intruders. That'll scare'em away. :evil:

rounding third and heading home...
I agree ... seems a little immature.

gee, a hand grenade mod and the 134 gatlin gun mod- innokin seems like their designers are 14 year old boys . it might not be so bad if they were actually full functioning, but they always seem to lack some features that other mods incorporate. they only have limited settings and i'll bet we will read about some "horrible accident" when someone gets hurt because they mistook the mod for something else. they seem like a form- over -function type company and i prefer functions over an exaggerated "cool" look..... how well is that 134 doing anyway?

You'd be telling the story from the morgue ;-)

Is it just me or does anyone else think the innoken coolfire 2 (The one that looks like a grenade) is a dumb idea.... i feel like i have enough problems with people asking if thats some sort of bomb in my hand. And to make it actually look like one? I Just feel like thats unnecessary design with no real function... Yea good luck getting on the plane with that.

its pure genius

If getting vapors in the news for suspected terrorism at airports is the plan

and I don't give that well its not meant for out of the home
you just need to look at the news 1 day
to realize some one will get in trouble with this soon enough

The Coolfire 2 with the supplied clearo doesn't look like a grenade. It just looks stupid. Mine has a Smok Mini RDA on top of it, and I reckon it look a lot more like a grenade:

(Incidentally, it seems the Smok Mini RDA can turn any dull mod into something that looks good. I dig the big mod / small topper combo for some reason...)

But I think I get the idea of the Coolfire 2. Since I haven't opened it, it's only a conjecture, but here's what I think has happened:

The guys at Innokin wanted to design a very short mod. They've decided to widen the body to stuff some/all of the electronics on the side of the battery, while retaining the round tube form factor - either that or they have a wider PCB lying horizontally over the battery. Or maybe they just wanted to make the body wider to fit better in the hand. Who knows...

And then, they realized it would look like a grenade if they cut flutings on the side of the mod, and decided it would be "cool" or something. Unfortunately, it just looks gimmicky.

I love how it fits in the hand, and I love its short stature, but I wish it didn't have the flutings. It would look so much better with a smooth body. The Coolfire 2 is a great mod in its own right, but Innokin managed to make it look like a cheap toy. Too bad...
