Hi Mike
Just so you know the replacement o-rings are too tight for the last RH rings I purchased, hence 2 broken tubesI'll try again once my new tubes get here, more carefully obviously
I wonder if the new rings fell out of spec or RH made an adjustment on the fly
The feedback has been outstanding for RH fitment so far. If they seem tight again feel free to send the kit my way. BTW...I shipped yesterday and included a little surprise Thanks for sending so quickly Elantis! From the dimensions you posted I'm thinking 22 x 1.5 will be ideal. Once it's delivered I'll get it fitted right away and post a pic

I packed it nice and safe in one of the "thingies" and sent it with the glass...but I had to "MacGyver" the envelope
since I didn't have any small ones.
Hey Elantis! Here's your FT kit.... Bingo!!
WOOT!!!!!! Me luvs it!!!! That lines up perfectly!!! Different o-rings?????
So now for this - I need a new Teal full size, and an Amber full size...another Teal DT, and the Orange one when it comes in!!! Ima gonna be soooooooooo colorful
I needs to order me some other tanks too...I just recently purchased the Youde AGA T-5 and T-7...I have a red and teal tube for those but need my other colors!!! I even managed a dual coil in the AGA T-7 believe it or not!!! Think I'm gonna need an Amber and (dang no purple) so I guess Blue for these.
So...I am going to double check my color wants then place an order and you can just send my rings back with my order - deal???????
Yes indeed...Different o-rings with the Tarsius tanks. I tried the 1.5 wall but it was tight! The good news is the length of the stock FT Nano tank is identical to the Tarsius (14mm). The full size Tarsius fits as well...The chimney overlaps the o-ring in the top cap nicely We're good to go on this one just by tinkering with o-rings. Thank you very much Elantis!! I have to say the o-rings seal nice but not quite as snug as the RH set-up. I planned on sending it back with a couple of freebies so don't worry about placing an order So teal and amber full size?

See now ^^^this^^^ is why I appreciate the "master of fitment"!!!!! I had an inkling that these would fit better with the Tarsius tanks, but I am so happy that I sent it to you for the perfect fit
...and thank you so much for the little gifts it is much appreciated...I am still awaiting the quartz kits in Black and Brass, hopefully they will arrive within the next couple of weeks (they are FT ones too...) Teal full size for sure....hmmm and I was going with the Amber full size for the Brass colored Kayfun - yeah I think that will work
And I will continue stalking this thread and your site for my Orange DT and probably a few more...I am really spoiled with these DT's!!! I have a ton of others that I never use anymore, I really like the glass ones so much more than the SS or even my trustone ones.
Got the rings back today...Thanks so much Mike....I immediately switched out one set with the RH set I had on it and no more fiddlin', it fit perfect to the Kayfun 3.1 clone I had the RH set on and I could take out the little adjustments that I needed before. I am glad these are more inline with the Tarsius sets, at least in height. I changed out the other with the Teal that I had the nano on but must have gotten the O-rings juiced up and it is really slippery. I never pick up my mods by the topper, which is a good thing or I might end up with a lap full of juice with this one right now. At least until I empty it and clean it up a bit, but the fit is perfect, another clone but a Lite type and before I had leakage with the other set.
Thank you...thank you...thank you...I am so happy to have my teal full size back...
As soon as those Orange DT's arrive I need to place an order for the DT and an Orange Tarsius tank but with O-rings for the FT model...and a few other things

You're ahead of me Uno...I'm still awaiting the "slow boat" from China for the two other Quartz Kits I ordered, one in black and one in brass before I can put all my stuff together
. The last order took a month so we are in that range now.I may need to order a new Orange tank in the FT (Tarsius) size since the one I have is the RH size...but I wanted to wait until the DT's were up. Plus I'm going to order a few more tanks...
I have a black Kayfun that would look awesome dressed with the smoke nano tube, guess I need to take a looksie at the colored rings...
That was one of the looks I am hoping for and another would be with the Orange/Black combo - think Halloweenie
Or since I just purchased a brand spankin' new Red Mini from a company in Colorado - think red and black combo would look cool too...
- or black/amber or well hey any combo would look good...you know Black goes with everything!!!!!!

Just broke my red nano tube 
Apparently there's enough variance with the o-ring slot that it's hit-or-miss, either just right or too tight and the stock o-rings are definitely to loose to use, bummer have to order a new tube and begin the wait again

New tubes ordered, red (replacement) and an orange...
Looks like I'm goin' to have to take all my rings in with me to work and machine the o-ring groove to match the one that did fit well, not sumpthin' I was plannin' on having to do...
