Well in anticipation of receiving the tube kit I've machined my plugs to thread the rings onto for bead blasting :)

Elantis could you PM me a link for the RH kit please, TIA...

I will gladly do that...just to let you know I haven't actually received the kit as of yet...I am hoping it is good, but I know you are leaving soon for your trip.

Edit: Well I thought I would, seems like the fleabay seller no longer has any...

I have a question for Mike when he comes 'round, I have been thinking about purchasing some Siam tanks that are in the classies, and I kinda need to know if this is the right tank for the tube sizes #5 and #6.

I don't really want to purchase them until I am sure, since it doesn't look like the caps are available any longer or at least not that I have found.

Now only if the nano quartz kit would have made it here today :(.

I ordered the kit the day before the tubes, the tubes arrived today and the kit will be here tomorrow....sigh...

Will be watching for the Tips - I need purple and teal desperately!

Thanks again for the kick ... customer service Spectrum! Pics to follow at some point...

My pleasure Elantis and AJ! Quick shipping comes standard with every order and I like to send you guys little surprises :D

Are they the older Siam caps Elantis? 5 and 6 both have a 20mm OD.

I need to ask the seller if he knows...cos I don't want them if'n they won't work with your glass.

Here I am dinking around with a new Windows 8.1 and you guys are posting awesome pics of loaded tanks! AJ... Love the SS and Smoke! Looks fantastic! Elantis...Sure looks like Purple to me :) That's the slightly more translucent version and the photo looks great! Just so you know I'm stealing both of those and putting them in the gallery...That's if I can figure this new puter out lol. Thanks for posting...Seeing them out there being used absolutely makes my day!

Hey I am dinking with Windows 8.1 too....I may have to ask you for HELP!!! :)

In real time this tank looks more like this purple, really deep and rich in purpleness:

But through the camera it looks more like this:

I'd bet those are Cobra tanks but probably best to confirm with the seller. BTW...The short tips should be wrapped up by this time next week :)

That purple is absolutely gorgeous!!!! I put it on this clone since I can't change the DT on it. I really need to get another one with the replaceable DT.

Hey hey, could you please take a picture of you OEM tank next to the upgrade with the spectrum tank? My oem tank is about 2mm shorter than the assembled rainbow heaven kit with my spectrum tank so my chimney doesn't seal up agains the oring in the top screw cap. I just want to know if its an issue with my tank, or my chimney. Check it out;

LEFT side = rainbow heaven kit with blue spectrum tank, RIGHT is oem kayfunlite + v2 with blue markolon(or however you spell that) center window. Definitely a height difference, gave me a mouth full of juice and everything just poured out my bottom airhole.

EDIT - I don't know my left from my right.

I do have the RHC kit, but my Kayfun is a Fasttech ($20) clone, I did have a bit of leaking but what I did was use this (which I have a supply of from my AGA's), and AGA positive post insulator and put it in the top of my chimney...no leaks, no problems, and improved the draw immensly.

I just attributed it to the fact that everything I have are clones, and cheap ones at that.
