just got this bad boy in the mail . I was just going to get the mod but for the price of kit which comes with matching o ringed baby beast I could not resist . size weight and power from this dual 18650 is great . I think I may have my new go to mod .

right now I take my AO Dagger 80w everywhere with me . Im very tempted to buy a couple of these and put them away for a rainy day .

i've been watching this mod. how's the fire bar on yours, does it have that double click issue?

no double click issue my 2 year old tested it out and it survived her abuse .

Nice, i've got one on the way. Can't wait.

How's the build quality?
Any niggles?

for the price I really like the build , the battery door is so so but still solid . but for prices for full kit 50-65 USD it cant be beat imo

No afterclick on mine as well. From what I've heard, only the early beta models that went out to reviewers have had that issue. Battery door seems to be much better than the ipv6x, no issues as of yet. My only concern long term is the screen getting scratched up. I tried leaving the protector on from the packaging, but it eventually peeled off from taking it in and out of my bag. The nice thing is that the kit comes with the complete baby beast kit so unlike some other "complete" kits you get the spare glass, o-rings, etc.

Received this one yesterday, no afterclick, play or rattle. Everything is solid and it's a little hefty for it's size, at least to me. I've used it in power and temp mode, both work as they should.

between here and there
Had mine for about a week now and love it. I got the red one and saw that ecig has the blue on special with batteries included so that is one its way also.

The instructions for the setting could be a little clear tho. Tried to put in VW mode but can't seem to get it there per the instructions. They must have left a step out or something? So I am vaping 60w in 'n' mode. It was one of the choices in memory(m6) so I just went with it. Battery life is great so far and no problems with the power button. I am not using the baby beast just yet.
I really like that gold one and that is what I really wanted but saw the blue and at that price said....go for it.

I have one. I really like it.

A couple cons for me:

Button rattle
I wish either the screen or the fire bar were on the other side
Misfire issue (I heard this is fixed with update)
"Atomizer short" error on a couple attys

Other than that I think it's a great mod.

Im running 1.1.3

Just ordered a 3rd one lol I will now have red , blue and gold . If they had the gun metal I would of ordered that as well . Im prob going to get more but I plan to sell the 3rd one I got . right now most BM shops do not have them . THe shop that did sold the 5 full kits they for $120 . Only reason I know this because people came into the BM / lounge I hang out at. I was there hanging out showing off the Aplintech box mods Im working on.

How the F are people so dumb to be paying these prices ? THe store they got them for is known for being overpriced even for BM standards . I dont mind buying stuff from BM but usually its not a huge difference in price. Personally I like to support small businesses in my area and support the Vapor revolution . If people want to buy my extra 2 for 100 bucks each they can have it . :)

Ive been trying all the tanks I have with this badboy . Im getting a much stronger hit it feels like over my Rx200s . I really think the Baby beast overall is best . meaning size , hit , looks ect . THought the Limitless RDAs are amazing taste and cloud wise with it . its the Limitless Plus and XL Im using

First thing I did was update to 1.2.2 off the smok site. Updating was a breeze, just followed the instructions from the DjLsb Vapes review. I don't know if it changed anything over the shipped firmware as I didn't use it before upgrading. It's been fine with 1.2.2 though. It shipped with 1.2.1 and is the blue one that ecig.com has bundled with a pair of HE4 batteries.
