Holy cow man! It has to be baseball bat size in that mode! LOL
I like it.. I don't have any 18650 batteries at the moment so I am using 18350 and 18490's..
I have a Phiniac tank on the way for it so it will be much smaller height wise once I plop that on the top..
It's built like a tank that's for sure! Super T quality no doubt!
Honestly, it wasn't until I got the 18650 Kick tube that I thought the ELA gained its proportional perfection.
It is the ultimate Super-T statement.
You guys use this in 18650 mode???
Just about every day
If I had one of the Kick tubes I'd be using that one periodically, too. Believe it or not, even with a long atty like the Rose or Kayfun on it, it's still not the longest setup I've used. I've had two in the past (one still in my possession) that were noticeably longer ;-)
At home, I tend to run her 18650(unkicked). For showing her off in public, I think her beauty is best presented in 18490 mode.
Yes, 18490's a good length too.At home, I tend to run her 18650(unkicked). For showing her off in public, I think her beauty is best presented in 18490 mode.
Silly n00b question for you ELA experts
In 18350 mode I haz a slight gap (less than 1mm) where the top cap does not sit flush with the tube.
Is this like the Simplicity where I use a different sized o-ring??
Minor I know but my gap'itis forced me to ask this Q...

Now...imagine how nice ELA will look with a Strata on top of it!!!
When using certain tops in 350 mode, I have a gap as well. You can try to adjust the center post up a bit, but certain RBAs won't allow you to run it flush and without a gap in the extension tube. The only RBAs that I've been able to get flush & gapless in 350 mode are the Taifun and Ithaka (or any other RBA with an adjustable center pin).
I've tried using a thinner o-ring at the base, but the gap in that area is so small that it will end up firing on its own when standing. If you always remember to lock the button before standing (or lay it in its side), then you shouldn't have any problems.

Thank ye sir..
It's really no big deal anyway as my main reason for getting it is to run 18490 mode for longer lasting battery times..
So far, I am really starting to dig it! At 1st I was kind of meh, but little Ti is taking a bubble bath and I've only been using the ELA.. Currently running a 1.4 micro with cotton in the KFL Plus and it's rockin'

What batteries are you using? Some 18350 batteries such as the AW is shorter than Efest. Mine does not have a gap in 18350 with AW batteries.
AW IMR 18350.. Same ones I've been using in little Ti..
I got a gaggle of o-rings with the ELA so I might try the others later but it's really no big deal because I will probably rock it in 18490 mode..

If you think it's huge with a kayfun on top,you should try a squape-Its bigger in diameter(not much tho),taller,heavy as a block of lead and performs almost as good as a block of lead.(my opinion only,I'm sure there are squape fans,I ain't one of them)Good grief it's freaking huge!!!!!!!!

Almost exclusively,Battery life on a 350 bites(you know that already),490's are better,but only last about half a tank with a kayfun,650's are good for a full tank.
Full tank,fresh batt-good for many hours of quality vape before they drop below 3.7v.(my threshold for a good vape)
Thank ye sir..
I was offered a Squape and passed. I previously had a KFL so knew the performance of it.
My 18650 batteries should be here on Thursday so I suppose I will try them out but daaaaaaaaamn that thing is gonna be huge!
My Ti will be used at home because I don't care if I swap batteries every few hours and the ELA will used out and about for the extra vape time that the bigger batteries provide.
I generally always wear shorts and stuff PV into a cargo pocket. Wonder if the ELA will make shorts sag because it's so durn heavy?
Gangsta pant sag mode awaits with ELA in pocket!

Not that bad(I hope)If they knew that the underwear showing started in prison to advertise available partners,they would get clothes that fit--maybe
