Introducing the Precise Simplicity 18650 by Super-T!

[daveinleics]

Hanging around the Super T forum is bad for my wallet
I couldn't resist the Simplicity 18500 and the integrated kikklet and my ELA isn't even in the post yet

Little doubt you'll get the Simplicity before the ELA to tide you over

DAVID: In case yo missed my post, please CHECK the mail I sent you with vital info @ my Precise Simplicity purchase...

If you use a Kick, do you have to drop the battery down to a 18490/18500? Or will the kick fit with an 18650?

Please reply with quote so I get pinged

Thanks in advance.

You'd need to get the Kiklet to use a Kick and an 18650.

GREAT! Thanks for the info.

you have to use the 18500 without the kick ring in the 18650.

Been searching everywhere for this answer, can anyone tell me if the top caps of the p+ and the simplicity are interchangeable? I know the kicklet wont fit a p+ but im still curious.

 

[raqball]

P+ was 18.5mm I believe and the Simplicity 18xxx line is 20mm

 

[echoes118]

pretty sure its 20mm as it fits 18xxx batteries. If its 18.5mm i underestimated their machining skills

 

[raqball]

Ya sorry.. 18.5mm is for the P+ 16340 version and the P+ 18xxx were 20mm..

Sorry I don't know if the top caps are swapable. Maybe send David an email..

 

[andrebandre]

Yeah, no worries, we'll make some 20mm ones. Theres no reason to have the added weight and width of 21, 22 or 23 mm tanks/rbas.

Gospel true.

They are not swappable unfortunately, different threads and different depth of cap protruding into the body (if you could screw it in, which you can't).

David:

Please remember to check my mail and confirm everything is ok. There is IMPORTANT information about order 16800's destination...!!!

 

[ebrown8]

Anybody have an Igo-L or W they can put on and post a pic? If so, Thanks! If not, disregard this comment...lol

got an 18500 coming soon with igo-w, pics incoming later this week.

Curious if Super T will ever sell the different battery tubes for the Simplicity line so if you bought the 18650 for instance you have the option to pick up the 18350/18500 tubes-or would you have to pick them all up separately?

 

[snork]

I have to whine.
My Simplicity 18650 has been here in Denver since 1:00 am last Thursday. USPS here apparently didn't get the message that the mothership recently "upgraded" Priority Mail.
Better get here today!

No problem, will do. Working on emails now

We may do that in the future, but quantities are so limited now, we don't have enough to spare. As those who now own a Simplicity know, our tubes aren't just a straight through tube, parts of the switch, locking mechanism and venting are all machined into the tube itself. It allows us to eliminate a couple of pieces found in other designs and make it all one piece, but at the cost of being a expensive piece to machine unfortunately.

Yay! It showed up!
It's a really nice device. I added one thick o-ring to whatever was already in there and have a total of three washers on the post to fit it to an AW 2000 mAh IMR. I might add one more washer for a nice short throw. The button isn't quite as smooth as a P+ (duh) but very nice, the spring appears to be the same as a P+ and the pressure is the same. Changing the washers was a bit hard until the Eureka moment hit and I figured it out. Very light and excellently finished. The low-tech adjustable post appears to be very sturdy and requires minimal adjustment, I think it will withstand the test of time.
My bottom button is perfectly flat and sits rock solid, but if there was a heavy atomizer on it I'd be very wary of sitting it upright unlocked. I'm not sure about unlocked pocketability, I do that all the time with a P+ but this one maybe not since the button has no protection.

Edit: I just found out, do not carry your Simplicity in your pocket unlocked.
