20,21,22,23 and 24 mm tanks all look good on the ELA. The ELA's dimensionings aren't as it seems, though it does flair to 24mm on the ends, over half the main body is 22mm and the telescoping secton is as 21mm, it has a very balanced and proportional look to it.

Probably not until the platings are done. I can't wait myself.

This may not be the most popular opinion, but personally, I think how that knurled part comes out will make or break the design. If there's no change, I would gladly throw more $$ his way for a simpler designed replacement once production has settled down.

Edit: Anyone know what that knurled part is made of?

If it's a rbs with bottom fed air like the A7 or Ody/Terminator, you could control the amount of air supplied to the atty with the adjustment cap. If it's a geni or rba with a side hole, it wouldn't matter because the air is supplied through the top cap of the atty.

EDIT: The ELA come with 2 top caps, 1 adjustable airflow cap and 1 regular 510 cap.

I was wondering how a rba with air control would function on the ela. Since the air flow is adjustable on the ela too...

I may be mistaken (happens more than I'm willing to admit), but I get the impression that the adjustable draw cap for the ELA is only for a carto or atty. I think RBAs and tanks won't work with it. At least that's the impression I got from what little David has said about it

Well if the rba takes it's air in from the 510 connection, just like a regular atty or carto does, then it stands to reason it would work the same way. Most rba's however have a side air hole so the air adjustment would be moot.

EDIT: That is unless it's a recessed connection in the air flow cap. Then you'd have to use an unsealed 510-510 adapter.
