We have a new kit from Smok – this time it is the Smok Species Kit which includes the new TFV8 Baby V2 tank.
I will look at the tank first – yet again the crazy Smok naming conventions are out in force and this is a Baby V2 version of the TFV8 tank.
I am not sure if previous TFV8 coils are compatible as a new range of Baby V2 coils have been released for this tank.
The coils available come in 3 different colours so you can match them to your tank. You get the Baby V2 A1 and A2 heads in the kit.
- A1 Baby V2 – single mesh coil 0.17ohm rated 90-140W
- A2 Baby V2 – dual coil mesh head 0.2ohm rated 50-80W
- A3 Baby V2 – triple mesh coil 0.15ohm rated 60-100W.
The mod is the Smok Species mod which uses two 18650 batteries which are not included in the kit.
The mod will output up to 230W and you have Variable Wattage and Temperature control user modes.
A 1.45inch colour high definition screen on the front which is touch operated provides all the controls.
There is one button for locking and unlocking the screen plus the side mounted fire bar.
Smok have created a new user interface for the Species mod and you can select from 6 colour themes for the display.
There are 8 colours available – Black/Red, Red/Black, Gold/Black, Prism Blue/Black, Prism Chrome/Black, Green/Black, White/Red and 7 Colour/Black.

Actually I quite like the look of this latest Smok offering – apart from the horrible tank naming conventions – all makes for more confusion when trying to buy replacement coils!
Will you be buying the Smok Species Kit? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
hello guys, have you had the chance to check if any coils from the family are compatible between stick 9 and species tank? in smok website there is a list of coils called family baby v2 and there are 2 that say “custom for stick 9” but the others nothing in the same bunch of coils. And as you said Michelle, more coils more confusion, I loved the crossover compatibility between tanks with coils tfv8 and geekvape x1 (my favorite) and they work everywhere, obs damo, vaporesso revenger, geekvape tanks, a lot of tanks.
hopefully there is something similar with this new family of coils at least among smok products, like mini usb 🙂
saludos!
Hey Rocker,
Check out Michelles SMOK Mag Grip review here, she covers the Baby V2 tank and coils in more detail there.
Yes, mines being shipped as we speak. I got mine cheap from the Smok store as ive got a free voucher and shipping during August is free. There is no cross compatibility with the new tank/coils – i asked Smok. I suspect the tank on its own will be available at some point. I see why the stand alone coils as many would just buy the v2 coils for older tanks. This way you have to buy the tank. I’m a little surprised no 20700 battery option as more new 20xxx 21xxx batteries are being released. Alien mk2 thoughts?
Hiya Gary
Yeh more tank and coil types to get confused with – I do wish Smok would name them better!
As for the mod – you would think new mods would have compatibility for 20700/21700 batteries now wouldn’t you as the norm!
Looks a lovely mod and I am a bit of a cynic when it comes to Smok but I absolutely loved the X-Priv and X-Priv Baby so I know they can knock out a brilliant kit when they want to – I really hope the Species is another winner!
Hope you enjoy using it!
