Awesome, thanks for the measurement. To wick properly I'm hoping it will be around the 38mm range.

You need to account for the 510 connection which is approx 5mm. The Sophia tube alone is 35mm. With the 510 connection is 40mm + juice control open 3mm = 43mm.

Doh! Looks like I'll be doing some shaving off the top. We'll see.

You might only need 1-2mm for juice control depending on the viscosity.
I would do 1mm at a time as to not screw it :) Pun intended.
The other problem is when you tighten the brass screw down it could turn the sophia closed

A double "doh"! I forgot that mine comes with the Delrin tank. Now I won't be able to see how much I have the Juice control open on the Sophia when I try it out.

BTW, This mod is amazing and can't wait for my batteries to arrive tomorrow.

Ahhhhhh ... Yes I can relate to the $30/month for lawn care! It was what I paid in FL to have my lawn mowed and trimmed every week! Ahhhhhhh ... THOSE were the days! Haha! Lets see ... I'll tell ya how my Dad told my Mom years ago when I was trying to explain to her how big my lot was at the beach in FL! He finally said to her ... Look out the window ... See our garden? You could put her lot in it FOUR times!!! LOL! Soooooooooo ... Yeah ... There's a total of 152 acres here! I mow a little over 6 acres! The cost to mow the "lawn" here ... 10 times the normal fee of $30/month for a "lot"! ;-) Hence ... I ride ... About 6 hours! U G H !!!!!!!!! Needlesstosay ... I have a very small CONDO in FL (lawn maintenance included)!!!! Hahaha! :D

WOW! 6 hours! Well, I hope you take along some good music, some cold beverages and I know you've got a good vape :D. You are living the dream!

Ok, so I've come to the conclusion that I can't really play around with the Sophia and Short body until I get my hands on a clear tank. However, I do believe that it will work but with the Brass screw will be sticking out a little more than normal. I think the best way to use it is to put the tank in first then put the Brass Ring on top of the Sophia. With the flow control pretty wide open you'll insert the Sophia from the top of the BB in through the top of the tank. That way when you screw down the brass ring it will also fully close the Sophia so you can fill the tank. Once the tank is filled open the brass screw to the desired juice flow setting and your all set. The brass screw o-ring fits snuggly enough in the Sophia to turn the body without moving the base of the Sophia. The only problem for me is that I don't know to what extent the Sophia can be opened since I can't see it. So I'm going to wait until I get a clear tank to actually see for sure how it all works. Hopefully they'll have some in stock this Saturday so I'll be stalking the site again.

Or maybe some here as a extra one they can sell me. ;)

For now I'm using the Diver V2 without any issues so far and I'm really loving it.

Now to see how long I can go before switching batteries. I put a clear J-Wrap on it but not really liking how it feels with it on. I may just run it naked and deal with the "character" that builds up on the body. After all, I did buy this mod mainly for it's durability so I don't have to worry about always being careful.

I had a problem with the clear wrap, Strike. It bled over and made the door stick shut. I tore that sucker off and got a couple of others to replace it. I'm sticking with the Wu Tang one, at least for now.

And, from what I read, my problem (with the clear) wasn't exactly unique. So be careful, please.

Thanks for the heads up but...not sure what you mean by it bled over? Like the wrap slid over? What's this Wu Tang one?

Yeah - it kind of stretched or something. It was weird.

I just CALL it the Wu Tang one. This one:
120

Can I do that here? Uh-oh. Too late, if not.

Lol, ok. Yeah the wrap is pretty stretchy. Had a hell of a time putting it over the top now the Brass Ring screws down over a little piece of it.

I was never a fan of wraps over my smartphones and I'm starting the feel the same with the BB being wrapped.
