Reviewer comments on business characteristics

Another electronic mod, variable power?
Yes, but not that… as we will see, the Bec Pro hides its game, since it also allows you to switch to mechanical mode, and above all… it connects to your mobile phone, transforming it into a real adjustment console.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

The single interface button is multi-directional.
The only small flaw, in order to ensure maximum responsiveness to the movements it has to endure, Smoktech has left a little play between the enclave of the button and the latter. Suddenly, if we shake the mod to make it do the “rattle” test, it happens that we hear a little noise, which personally annoys me at the highest point.
For the rest it is flawless, the user interface is clear, the screen is beautiful and wide, the thread of the bottom cap which allows to set up the good quality battery (no squeaks when it is tightened) .
In hand this product gives an impression of obvious solidity.

Reviewer's comments on functional features

He does everything easily.
Of course everything is planned to be able to use all the settings directly from the mod, but it becomes so much easier from your mobile phone once the Bluetooth function is activated. Once this is done, you need to go to the Apps of your mobile phone to download the “Smart Bec” application for free.

From then on, the geek who slumbers in any vapoteur wakes up and it must be said… it is the foot!
With just a few touches of my screen I can access everything, I see everything, I switch to mecha mode, VV mode, VW mode… I see my battery charge, the time of each puff… and so on.
Yes some features are useless so what? smile ... I love it.
One of my favorite features is definitely the switch to mechanical mode. In this configuration, the chipset goes into “pass through” and we get almost the same vape as with a classic mecha. Convenient to go with a single mod and several Atos, including a few drippers.

Be careful though! The use of nipple accumulators will prevent the mod from being completely closed (with a few turns of the bottom cap…)… This mod is the friend of flat nipples…

TWO top caps:

 

Smoktech-BEC-Pro

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The first dedicated to the Atos Ego and the other to the Atos 510 in order to ensure perfect aesthetics whatever the Atomizer installed.
A manual (in English) that explains perfectly how to start the product and how and where to download the application.On the box, finally, all the certificates of authenticity.
No doubt, it's serious, it's Smoktech.

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

A classic transportability I would say for this type of mod… so let's not dream, if you slip it in the inside pocket of your costume, you will no doubt be asked if you came armed.
Not that it is bulky (although… a bit high all the same), but it is heavy with a battery (175 grams… all the same).
The SX330 v2 chipset from YiHiEcigar never fails… a superb and pleasant smooth vape whatever the ato mounted.
Never overheating, no weird behavior ... strong, reliable and functional tough from home.

The mood ticket of the reviewer

Yes it is a little expensive.
Yes I love him.
Yes its button makes a little noise and it irritates me to the highest point.
Yes I love the fact that I can regulate it from my cell phone… Yes I am a geek!
Yes this mod allowing to go up to 50 Watts and starting with a resistance of 0.3 ohms is a real Swiss army knife.
No, he doesn't have to be ashamed of products that are worth twice as much.
In my opinion, all it lacks is the on-board recharging function from a USB port to become the mod of choice for your travels ... as it is, you should not forget to take batteries and charger.
Is it worth its price? Yes because it is reliable… but 30% less that would place it in the top three mods to own.
Do I recommend this mod? YES !
Looking forward to reading you.
Spoke.
