Someone, on this forum, is the proud owner of a Simplicity 18350 Titanium. She just doesn't know it yet.
Unless .. she is reading this....................
I happen to know that someone bought her one .. just because she is such a nice person!
Why so ambiguous?
It does! I've got it kicked at 13 watts. Nice little vape. Wish I had sprung for the adjustable airflow cap, though. The draw is a little tighter than I'd like.
Wow a Super 6 just came up on the classies!

Ok, I need a stranger like that. I'd like a Ducati Deavil if anyone is interested in being my best anonymous buddy.
Heck I'd be happy if people would just stop slapping me in the head and calling me names.. And that's just my friends! You should see what strangers do and say to me...
Seriously though.. I need a sugar momma!
You should see what my wife says to me. It would make those strangers look like best friends.
So let me gets this straight..simplicity line anounced after ela...then get shipped faster than then ela preorders...then simplicity titaium anounced today..and will ship once again faster than ela preorders...does anyone else find this annoying....im guessing the new rba, which is beta at the moment will ship faster as well. Sorry i cant be the only one a bit perturbed how production of already PAID preorders are put on the back burners...
Don't feel bad, I waited 6 months for mine. Its well worth the wait and if you feel the wait is unbearable, simply email David at: supertmanufacturing@yahoo.com and he will promptly refund your money.
David has said that HE is the bottleneck on the ELA.. The ELA requires much more prep time to go out the door than the ready to roll Simplicity does.
This was the same back in my S6 days. The prep on them to go out the door was long. David announced the OG Precise 10440 and they shipped almost immediately while we still waited for our S6's..
Some of David's PV's are pretty much ready roll and he has his staff do the final preparations. The ELA, much like the Super Six was, is in a sense, the flagship device and gets more than it's fair amount of David's special treatment / attention..

Think of it this way. The Simplicity is a matchbox car, whereas the ELA is a Transformer. There's not much mechanical movement in a Simplicity, so David is more comfortable delegating the post-machining fit and finishing to his minions. On the other hand, the ELA incorporates more complex fitting and adjustments, a job best left to the master himself.
Regarding the rda, David has pretty much been living and breathing ELA for several months, longer than he planned probably, stressed to ship a perfect product to maintain his reputation while enduring complaints about delays and generally having a less than fun time. Indulge him his diversion.

I think of it this way. When I ordered my ELA I knew there would be a wait, and the 8-12 weeks had already been revised by many on this thread to be more like 16-24 weeks. So after some time, I order little bits for my ELA - tips, kiklet, batts, extender tube, trim rings and KFL. Each pleasant reminders of what is to come, and also a commitment by me see the lovely ELA through. Had I not been afforded the time to make those other purchases, I would have had quite the dilemma in front of me yesterday. Thankfully not, those other purchases will make me stay the course for the ELA and I end up saving about $200 as well. Otherwise, I would have dropped the ELA like a hot potato and been all over the Ti Simplicity like a troll on a turkey sammich!
It's almost like I was psycho! I mean psychotic!
Ummmm maybe psychic?
Awe heck, I give up! It's almost like I had a crystal ball!
Trolls like turkey sammiches?
I guess that makes me a troll,given a choice,I would take the turkey
thats sooo true.. the $200 i spent on the preorder for my ELA have been forgotten about by my wallet already, in the time im waiting i've bought, brass accent rings, various toppers, batts, nice charger, all in anticipation for the main event.. my time is right around the corner and when its all said and done i'll be a happy camper for sure.. before finding out about the ELA's exsistence i was shopping around for one mod and only one mod to last me a lifetime of vaping.. im super glad i stumbled on the SuperT thread when i did..
Since i started vaping back when we were fillin the blu foam, i always knew about SuperT. I admired the design of the Precise line. but it felt like a mirage. super nice to look at, i wanted one, but i felt it was probably out of my budget and i moved on across the desert filled with egos. boy was i wrong.. i've spent hundreds and hundreds since that time experimenting with different devices and buying replacements for faulty ones.. the $$ i spent here is well worth it in my opinion.. simplicity and ELA for life lol
"It's worth the wait". Sort of like "we must endeavor to persevere" in Little Big Man, wonder how much mileage is left in that reply? For some I am seeing signs that they have "thought about it long enough". Me, I like naps and don't mind the wait Lone Watie - YouTube (end of vid)

I'm certainly going to stick it out and wait for my ELA to arrive (I'm already 6 weeks in) but I think it is somewhat disingenuous to post "10-12 weeks lead time" on the order page for the ELA when Super-T knows very well that lead time is in fact closer to 24 weeks. That's a long time to have ~$200 tied up with nothing to show for it.
I know the ELA is a good mod but had I known I would be waiting up to 6 months before seeing it I probably would have passed and bought a different mod of similar quality and it would be in my hand right now.
