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.

Aluminum polishes very easily. At least that's the way I look at it.

The funny thing is every time I pick up the BB I always find myself wanting to click the button 5 times before I use it thinking I need to unlock it. Lol

That's funny, Strike3..... I tap my heels together 3 times before I hit the button.

It scratches easily too though. And in my hands, even anvils get nervous.

Tap, Tap, Tap.... Talk.

I can see it.

My Clear J-Wrap started giving me trouble after a couple of weeks. Nearly panicked since it took me some time to get the door off. It's posted <here>

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.

DP~ What are these Wu Tang ones you speak of?

 

[Katdarling]

xtreme..... this is the Wu Tang.




I like to call it the Tang Wu tho. But that's just me.

Hey. At least I'm not in Kansas anymore.



(Altho, I have zero against Kansas. I've never been to Kansas. I'd like to visit Kansas.

Kansas City here I come.)

Thanks X. It's about to come off shortly. Just not liking the feel of it.

I used the gold carbon fiber @ J-Wraps ... Fits perfect.

That's where DP got his Wu Tang (I think), but it's not carbon fiber.

Thank you, deary. And no aluminium polish necessary.

The J-Wraps look like this ...

But it doesn't totally cover all the aluminum. They do a pretty good job of protecting though.

(Getting kinda tired of gold after a year. I'm thinking PINK next ... What ya think Ms. Darling? )

 

[V4Vendetta]

Someone on here actually drilled out the brass ring to fit the Sophia. Can't remember who it was but the tube was still touching it somehow to make the connection. I think they had a spare brass ring and drilled one or used the older version brass ring. Can't remember what I wore yesterday much less anything slightly more detailed.....LOL

I don't recall ever reading about this but am really interested in more details. This is what I imagined was required to get Sophia working but wasn't sure how to open up the brass ring to fit through Sophia and still provide negative ground.

Mine is....... hmmmmm....

As #### said, it is mostly covered, and the bits that are exposed don't seem to be scratch magnets as the rest of the body seems to be.

Love the pink for ya, kidlets! (sending me the Gold, are ya?)
