Its funny, I joined another forum recently, and not to bad mouth the forum, but its odd how different groups prioritize what is the in devices and the ones they dont care for.

I posted on thier ELA thread and man they do not have a lot of love for it. Some really bad mouth it. I took it in stride, the forum is so different in its structure. THey werent overly aggressive and I took it with humor. I just laughed it up and flooded them with photos of ELA and made them suffer. :)

I would be curious as to what they are saying about the ELA. PM the website if you don't mind (ok if you would rather not). Do these people making comments actually own one or are they more the "armchair quarterback" types? I'll take a crack at 'em (diplomatically) if they have no grounds for some of the comments they are making :)

I believe in brutal honesty. Not everyone appreciates that from me. Oh well! Comes with the package. :)


This is true. I sent Cucco a pic of me and my belly wheelbarrow and asked her if I should paint my wheelbarrow black with white trim for a wedding I have coming up. All she could say was my blue hat looked stupid and no one should take a wheelbarrow to a wedding. Made me cry. I'm proud of my wheelbarrow.

Hey. Everyone should have a person in their life that 'says it like it is'. I warn new friends up front, if you don't want the truth, don't ask the question. :)

I hate, when girls ask 'Do I look fat in this?". They already know they look fat in it! Otherwise, they would not be asking! They are just looking for someone to lie to them! I'm not that person. :)

My second hubby, later in life, started asking if he was looking old. I said "Yup! Old hot dude! Give me some of that!".

Dose anyone know when the ela will be available for pre order again?

Best estimate is sometime between spring and late fall of 2014. Personally, I'd also expect a price increase. The ELA was under priced when it was released. It's worth the wait if you order one. In this internet on demand, drive up fast food, over night gotta have it now world its a good thing to have to wait for.

Underpriced, you think :laugh: ? It was a steal @ $189.99 with all the bells and whistles...
It already has gone up as its listed on the SuperT webpage for $249.99..........

... that means the black market should garner a conservative $400 minimum with missing accent ring.

Hey guys, I have the flat bottom installed and my button is still getting super hot. It even gets stuck now and when I looked at the button whole it was stuck it was sparking. My atty works fine on my precise simplicity, I dunno what's going on. =(

Wish I could help, but I haven't tried any of my extras. Tops/Bottoms/etc................. :)

I was told by a friend who has a ELA also not to run a dual coil drip on it because it has this problem. Of course I'm hard headed and kept doing it. The ELA has to be able to run low ohm dual coil right? Especially with the strata coming?

??? The ELA is able to run whatever you throw at it, I think your friend is mistaken. I've run sub ohm quad coils on it with no issues (not typical for me, I just like to play around with new builds sometimes)

Typically, if your button is getting hot then you have a short somewhere. Either it's an issue with your build on your RBA or perhaps you've got the ELA center pin adjusted too tight against your atty. If the latter, just back off your center pin and screw it back in until it just makes contact and see if that fixes you. I know the hot button subject has come up a few times, though personally I've never experienced it so really can't offer any other suggestions than those two
