After much consideration, I have come to a conclusion: The double wide accent ring IS the best ELA upgrade.

Everyone gave me .... about suggesting it a month ago. I love it personally I'm glad someone else does too.

I still stand by my opinion on it. Everyone wanted it specced out to their "pet" 18650 battery and there's no way to accommodate all battery sizes. I'm glad David chose the AW IMR because it's a shorter 18650. Longer 18650's will still have a gap but at least they'll be usable. If he would've went with a longer battery that other people like, that would leave some people unable to use the accent ring at all.
ELA check-in.
I could not be happier, such a finely engineered & machined tool.
I did swap out the stock compression ring for a diamond knurled one, which I prefer. The added grip of the diamond cut fits perfect in my hand. I tend to push the mod down onto my finger rather than push my finger up into the button. The diamond provides just the right amount of traction for a nice hold, without feeling rough. The slant knurl worked fine, but this just feels better to me.
Are there any plans to get some Contact Kits made up soon, specifically the adjustable positive pin? I am all spare parted out now, haha, just need the last piece to my "just in case" stash
Hope everyone has a great weekend, or extended weekend if that applies to your part of the globe/job

Actually I could go with slightly different sizes if David ever made them but for me, the benefit of the current size is that when I use a slightly longer 18650, I have an O-Ring that fits perfectly in the gap and both protects it if I knock it over and looks like it was made to be there.
Out of the box, both v1 and v2 can accomodate 18650 batteries. There is an optional extended tube for 18650+Kick mode.
You don't need it, but I like using the extended tube in my ELA even without the kick. It feels more solid.
Just a heads up for those that wanted a slotted 16mm top cap, they've been posted up on the website.
It is Super T's own unique thread spec. So chances are if you're looking to hybrid something non-Super T to it, it will not be compatible.
So - do you think I could get a modder to make me a hybrid adapter for this
and for the P+, same problem.

What are you after? In both cases the P+ and the ELA tube are 20-ish mm in diameter so if you were after a hybrid look you'd need a 20mm atomizer too. Are those common?
I think he has some hybrid threaded RBA's that he'd like to use on his ELA, but at the moment can't because he has no way to put them on, since they don't have a 510 connector and the hybrid threading doesn't match the ELA threading.
Indeed I do - and they are 20mm RBA's.
I also have a P+, which is very well made, but again, very difficult to connect to.
All fine & dandy, if parts are available to do the job. Otherwise they must be specially made.

Probably be easiest on the ELA for us to just do a replacement 20mmx1 extension tube.
