I can't wait to get my hands on this setup as well (well, skipped pro ring and stainless, will use hippo and I like the fused quartz). Now it is the waiting game. Have you received shipping notice from vapourart yet?

I didn't receive any shipping notice , but when I checked my order status on their website it was shipped and there was tracking available. Too bad DHL is apparently busy delivering it to the wrong places.

Quick question: Just in case the Sophia arrives before the SnP tank, I think I will pop it in my standard size IBTanked tanks. Anyone have experience? Should I use the red oring which comes with Sophia? Remove any o's from the IBTanked?


Depends on how tightly the IBT's top O-ring grips Sophia. You can give it a try before filling the tank to see if it will turn well enough to use the juice control.

I use my Sophia in my IBTs with no issues. Didn't change the o-ring.

Thanks, chadsmo, looking on their site I was surprised to see my snps have already landed in OH, so I figure Monday on those. The sophias still appear to be in greece listed as transporting. Does anyone know the dimensions on the snp fuzed quartz glass tubes? I'm thinking custom ibtanked tube order.

Stupidity edit: They are listed on the site: ID 19 mm, OD 22 mm, length 27,5 mm

Let me see if I understand this correctly. The Sophia is a 45 mm long atty with the standard tube (not counting 510 connector).

If used in a 35 mm carto tank, the standard tube protrudes about 10 mm, but allows you to push the base of the atty out of the tank and remove it, with both ends of the tank still sealed by the standard tube. The protrusion also functions as the "knob" for adjusting liquid flow. A 10 mm drip tip on top would yield a 20 mm total protrusion with a seam in the middle.

If used in a 45 mm carto tank, the standard tube would need a straight drip tip a minimum of 10 mm long, or something like By Leo's "Nail" drip tip, to be able to push the base of the atty out of the tank and remove it, with both ends of the tank still sealed by the standard tube AND the drip tip. Any added drip tip would need a good grip in the tube, such as two o-rings, since it alone functions as the "knob" for adjusting liquid flow (no protrusion to grab).

The optional long tube is 5 mm longer with the top rounded, giving an integrated drip tip of about 15 mm length when used in a 35 mm carto tank. It would not be used with a 45 mm carto tank (unless one only wanted a 5 mm long drip tip).

Do I have this right? Thanks!
