I suggest to roll back to v4.4.7

i struggled all night with crashes and "free" kits due to this stuff.. 4.4.7 has no issues, also i disabled the dlc checker stuff.. works for me again now

lucky you are getting "free' kits, I cannot redeem them at all .

Merged post

Still not able to redeem kit, get this error when using the gui to redeem
