Same as you..read about it on the website, fell in luv immediately...fell off the Vela bandwagon and now trolling the production of ela thread. I owned the ggts and luved the versality of it, able to chang3 battery sizes 18350/18490 on the fly without swapping tubes or adding extensions..but the play of the telescopic tube and crushing the battery springs to keep it from wobbling bothered me....ELA just looks badass...plus the rheubidium plating and lifetime warranty including finishing (i believe)...i was sold!

I haven't seen any updates lately. Anyone know where David is on orders? Say, one placed in early June?
Jkim, the ELA is already awesome without your having to make stuff up about it. 
Rheubidium: a 1000 Island dressing / sauerkraut alloy able to withstand the most crusty rye and the cornedest beef.
But yeah, you're absolutely going to dig the telescoping action of the ELA. Twisty tubes are so 2012. There's no wobble, no play, and no cranking tension into a spring to make that happen.
Ragnarok, you'll probably see your ELA mid-October to early November I'd guess. It's completely worth the wait. Even if you don't think it's the best mod you've ever used, you can probably still trade it for your unicorn. But whatever you'd trade it for won't be as good.

Off topic question for all you SS gurus..
I have a Diver that I got in trade and it's scratched up pretty good. It's made from 304 SS.. Any help on getting the scratches out?

I've found that those 4 sided nail buffing blocks work amazingly well at polishing out those kinds of scratches.
I have an old 510 adapter that I use as a drill adapter. Use the drill to spin the atty against the buffing block.
I won't promise that the Diver logo will survive but the scratch will be gone.

You weren't kidding about being OCD about scratches and stuff, that little guy is going inside a tank you know.
Mounting it in a drill and some sandpaper in hand would clean it up quickly. Personally I'd give it a little rub with Autosol and then set it up.

I know but scratches drive me crazy! Oh wait, I am already crazy. LOL
It's my 3rd Diver and it's mainly going to be used with the Grail so the tube will probably just sit an collect dust anyway but it's bothering me! LOL
Diver #1 in a 22mm SnP tank for use with Roller.
Diver #2 in a 23mm SnP tank for use on my ELA
Diver #3 in Grail for dripping with Roller and ELA!

For a date reference, order 15527 was placed 04/22. It is helpful when David adds a date reference to the orders shipped (hint, hint
)

Curious: what would that buy us, information-wise?
Ya it's really hard to tell because there could have been 200 orders for other stuff between ELA's or there could have been 50 straight ELA orders..
So 200 order # could contain one ELA or 200 order # could contain 50 ELA's
It's really impossible to gauge..
Just got this notice on Facebook re new Simplicity offerings...

What's it say? I refuse to log into Facebook. I hope this isn't where updates are moving to
I loathe Facebook as well but logged in just to see what was posted..
Here it is.
It is impossible to gauge the number of ELA orders between order numbers or dates ordered, but the date does provide a little more information as to where shipping is at. Some of the updates in the Status thread do have the order date and the order number.
HEEEEELLLPPPP!!!!
I've dropped my ela and now the P on the locking button is stuck in place. I managed to unlock it by caaaaarfuly using a pair of pliers and a piece of cloth (no scratches) but I would have to do the same maneuver to lock it again...pleeeeease help...come on, us ELAite have to stick together
Thanks
