Love these set ups! Curious, do you have any issues turning the juice flow of the Sophia in the SnP? I have the SnP red orings in and the first time I set it up, no problems. This time, the Sophia is very hard to open up. It's weird. I know byLeo is making a short body Sophia but I would think its gonna be super hard to turn w/out any of the stem sticking out!

And I was even trying to turn it w/the byLeo nail :confused:
As Spydro said, the one o'ring helps and apparently you are already using only one. Oddly, on one of my SnP tanks, even with the single silicone o'ring, the Sophia is harder to turn than the other tank. I bought a hundred silicone o'rings and swap them out frequently, as the older they get, the harder the turn. Also, while I like the long body tube, it seems to slip between my fingers easier for some reason and it seizes up on me more.

And yeah, I agree... don't see how a short, flush Sophia is going to work.

Yep - it's a Drip N Vap "Provatip" from VapeRev.
That one is "tall" (even though it's not, very). The "short" ends with the platic on top, "tall" has another band of SS...
I'll be getting another one, but kinda hope to combine it with a kayfun cone if those EVER come back in stock.



I really like that tip. Where would I aquire one?

Kayfun cone sounds like a beck from the byLeo site. You may want to look there. Little inverted funnel that concentrates the vapor for mechanical flavor enhancement when using wider bore tips?

Nah, it's just a "ring". But it very slightly tapers from the ProVari 23mm to the toppers 22mm, for a nice, flush look.
I don't even use a Kayfun, but I like the "cone" and want one more...
That's one, on the left.

For you Loki tank lovers. Coming in February

Loki Tank Version 2

9qa8n5.jpg


It will be available in ss matte-ss shined- brass matte- brass shined


Price will be 45 Euro , will be given with medium glass tank and large glass included.

Does anyone know if these tanks work well with the Sophia? For me, some tanks just work better than others even with the right Oring.
These are beautiful, I don't own a Loki so would like some opinions--thanks!!

I have the Loki labs SS Tank and Ring. I find that the tank works fine with the Sophia, although don't bother swapping out the top oring. I did and found that the red one that comes with the Sophia caused the Sophia to be too loose and it didn't give enough of a seal. The OEM ring that came with the tank works much better.

That being said, I do struggle with the setup when using the ring. I think that the Loki SS tank + Sophia setup works much better without the beauty ring. I don't get the look that I prefer, but the vape is great and that's what's really important.

So far, my favorite tank to use with the Sophia for ease of use/least amount of fiddling is the Kir Fanis Privadero. Of course nothing is perfect, and the KF tanks aren't glass. I have cracked one of the tanks due to one of the juices I use (not sure which one was actually the culprit).

My favorite glass tank to use with the Sophia has been the SnP, but it does require a bit more fiddling than the Privadero.
