Thanks for the support, Chopper! We have been thinking about integrating a filler hole on the side of the tanks. We are contemplating the most secure and functional way to plug the hole without using anything that would detract from the inherent beauty of each tank. We think small rubber stoppers could potentially work well, but then there is the risk of the stopper being inadvertently pulled out when your PV is going into or out of a pocket, purse, etc. Regardless, if we make a tank like this, we would love for you to test it out and give us feedback!
One advantage of the glass tanks is that they can handle any juice without being eaten through by really strong juices. I'm thinking a rubber stopper would likely be eaten through so I say stick with traditional methods of filling the tank.... Just my opinion lol
I have found some scientific / food grade rubber stoppers that I think would hold up, but you do raise a very good point, Odium. Thanks for the feedback!
A little glass plug with a o ring on it may work just fine.I did that with a plastic plug on my tank and works just fine.The hole would have to be a little smaller to where you would have to apply a little force,not much.To get the plug in and that way once inside the o ring would act as the sealer.I just like the plugs less mess for me.I hate sliding cartos out of tanks to fill.Sometimes they pull out too far and you have remaining juice all over the place,I know Ive done it.And yes stay away from rubber plugs the deteriorate over time.Silicone plugs would work just fine and some are almost clear so that wouldn't really throw off the looks of a tank I don't think.I would love to test one and give you unbiased feedback.
If they work and won't look clumsy in the middle of a beautiful work of art then it sounds good to me
Great points and ideas from you both, Chopper and Odium, thanks! We will definitely be giving the filler hole with silicon stopper a shot. We just may end up making our tanks available with filler holes as well as without, to make sure that everyone can use their tanks the way that they want to. Keep the great feedback coming, we really appreciate it!
Hi Misterkai!
This is very exciting. Looking forward to seeing and maybe testing your designs!

I would like something slim and with lots of colors. Not a huge tank. Something that continues the lines of the pv and doesnt stick out over the sides. Did that make sense? 
But mainly lots of colors lol

Yes, it makes perfect sense! One of our main focuses for our accessories is going to be exactly what you are describing: clean and sleek, yet rich with color and artistic elements.
Good,good. Sometimes I think I am speaking a different language when I type. You know the blonde language.
