Running in 18650 mode with flat bottom button + solid top cap + extender tube + additional accent ring + kiklet + KFL + Tanbur. The gap is 1/8th inch exactly so I'm going to look at some SS washers and maybe even if a thin knurling ring exists to fill that space. If I find one I would put it at the kiklet end.

Daaaamn dude...2 people are needed to vape LJS...unless you're handy with your feet :)

I received my new Solid Top Cap today.. Looks like its a miss…I removed my center post from my original ELA and tried to screw in into the new Solid Top Cap..No luck..It barely catches a thread and doesn't screw on at all..I hate to have to mail my only working center post back in with the new Solid cap, but there's really no other choice..Has anyone else done this yet? I'm wondering on what the turnaround time will be..

Mine's in transit to Super-T still, but I'm in the same boat. Glad I have a few simplicity's to use in the mean time! David did say that they would get any of these fixed ASAP and back out.

No way, could I be left ELAless, for any amount of days. I hate the thought of being back down to one. I finally got my backup. Wish I had my backup, to my backup. :)

If I have to sent my original cap + center pin in to be modified so the pin fits the new cap, will it still fit the old cap correctly? I need this clarified before I can go forward:confused:

I need it clarified too. I have an early ELA and a second one on order that should ship in the next batch. Before I send the new top caps and center pin back, I just want to make sure I'll still be able to mix and match all of the parts between the two ELAs. I don't want to send them back for re-machining, only to discover afterwards that they won't work with the new ELA, the old ELA, or some combo of the two.

Hi :blush:....like what? Do tell :)

If nothing else, I thought I would maybe get one for the Simplicity(SS), I bought for my Personal Assistant. I didn't think there would be any delay for that order.

My incoming list: (1)Precise ELA; (3)Strata RDA(ELA); (2)Simplicity(18500)-Titanium; (1)Simpicity(18500)-SS; (4)Strata RDA(Simplicity).

Cucco, If your personal assistant does not work out, to whom shall I send a resume? Or perhaps adoption is in order? :D

I'm feeling a little dumb right now,,I'm thinking ahead but not looking behind as others are here.. Makes sense though, if Dave adjusts the threading on my new Solid Top Cap instead of touching the center post then my center post will most likely fit both caps correctly. He can make adjustments to the top cap itself which will leave my center post interchangeable between the two. Sounds easy enough.I just hate to lose my center post for weeks/months?

Not related but, My wife just baked a batch of blond brownies from scratch..She's a pastry chef…I feel better already…!!

Very nice, I am only waiting on 3 of those :( but have some other very nice devices on the way. I hope I love my Super T like I know you do. I will always be faithful to Perseas and GP as he is a great friend but, look forward very much to ELA quality like the owners on this thread do. It's nice to have friends already here and new friends like you that make me feel like I'm in the right place. Thanks.
