Ego tank sleeve for the Vivi Nova

[Lavaca5]

I'm wondering if the ego tank sleeve for the 3.5 mil DCT tank will work with the Vivi. I used to have a DCT tank that I never really used, so I don't remember the particulars about the size, but in the pictures, they look taller and slimmer than the Vivi. I'm thinking the diameter of the upper lip of the 3.5 sleeve will bee too small. On the other hand, the 5 mil sleeve looks too big. Is anyone using one of those sleeves with the Vivi? I've ordered a shorty cone, but I like the look of other ones better.

And speaking of sleeves, what I would really like for use with the Phoenix, just for aesthetics, is a Vision-style straight sleeve in anodized aluminum (or acrylic) with colors to match the the drip tips - like a drip shield without the shield part, i.e., the o rings. I love the love the look of the drip shield / 901 atty combo, but the one I have is too small to fit over the Phoenix. Anyone seen anything like that?


Thanks

Are you talking about the 'adapters' that cover the threads? If so, you are correct on both counts. The bigger size will stick out about .75mm all the way around (sorry, the only measuring thing I have is a metric caliper) and the small one will sit back about 2mm all around.

Hope that helps.

That's exactly what I needed to know. Thanks.
