I was looking at that and realized it can be done on a kayfun. Just have to seal the drip-tip end. I tried it today on my Lite with my carto-tank filler tool (twice) - worked flawlessly.

Thought you could, but definitely block that drip-tip, another added bonus to the KF Lite :)

Came across this beauty in my searches, wanted something to cover me for camping or taking one of those off-the-grid vacations. Not for everyone, but most impressive non-the-less. Just wondering if anyone has had some hands-on experience with it? Never be without juice for your juice! Solar JOOS – Products

Darn i'm getting tired of waiting on my baby to come home to Daddy. Been over 60 working days. Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh no hair left.

Hang in there, its well worth it. I can honestly say, its the best mod that I own, and I own some of the so called "best". It will arrive in immaculate condition. Not even a hint of a hair line scratch from handling or assembling. I was truly impressed.

My ela arrived the way all high end mods should arrive, and that is flawless. All the time spent on fit an finish is worth it. IMHO, Super T is the best in the game at the moment.

LOL, at the moment? I think the ELA going to have a few years of "moments" to enjoy. If you enjoy and appreciate just plain simple engineering and machining as well as clean, simple, timeless looks this will more than fit the bill.

It doesnt have bells and whistles, logos, serial, numbers etc. WHat it does have is quality that speaks for itself. Most of the others without those items are just a metal tube with end caps and a button, albeit some made better than others, but nonetheless a tube with a button.

Some might argue, does it really make a difference in the performance or make your vape taste better, maybe not , but you certainly wont be dissapointed. It has a lifetime warranty for a reason, it will out last most of whats out there.

You wont have to modify it, sand it, change the button, change the contacts etc. It will do what you need it to do, that is work flawlessly with out a lot of maintenance.

Most other APVs have some sort of plastic, delrin or other parts that if it gets over hearted or you do a dumb thing like have it fire off for almost an hour, it will be unscathed. If it has a battery vent , the ELA just sort of gets all loose and no worries of a pipe bomb event.

okay, enough gushing, I say all those because I have first hand experienced the safety and ruggedness of the ELA.

I got offered about double for my ELA today. If it goes to show how much I love the mod, I just politely turned it down. I have IMHO* the best telescope ever made sitting in my hands and I ain't letting go. But it did get me thinking what would my number be? I mean everything has a price, right? I think it'd have to be at least double of double.

*IMHO was only added for those who would argue otherwise, we here all know it's the best, lol!

Good question on what an owner (or one waiting) would let their ELA go for. We know some have cancelled, so the bottom extreme is $190. But those who have held her in their hands, well they ain't gonna budge without a substantial profit. I also think those who are waiting intending to stick it out consider the "wait time" equal to work (I know I do), and that is worthy of at least 40 hr/week @ minimum wage. Doing the math on me, I ordered on 6/28 which means $190 + $2,560 (8 weeks wait appreciation @ $8/hr) = $2,750 which sounds about right. I think I'm in the ballpark and won't quibble over a couple hundred here or there, but must be cash or cashier's check and only good for this week :)

My love (read: lust) is fickle so there is no telling how long I will keep the ELA once I get it. My Super Six lasted forever and I never grew tired of it but I have had many, many other PV's that just don't do it for me..

I loved my Super T T1 but sold it after a few months because at the time I was on a 510 craze.

My OG Precise 10440 lasted a few months but it's demise was the tiny battery.

My Simplicity 14500 lasted about a month. The only issue I had with it was the brass locking ring.

How long will the ELA keep my lustful eye from wandering? No clue! My S6 was the longest lasting PV I have ever owned and if I didn't lose it, I'd still be pimping it now..

I doubt I'd sell the ELA though.. Maybe a trade to a nice home for whatever I was looking for at the time.

Just got my Kick 2 in today and wow does this thing rock so much better than its latter version! :shock:

But don't let that stop you from making a DNA20 module, David... :p

So .. I ordered Kicks with my ELA orders. I assume they will be Kick 1's? I guess I should have waited? :(
