At one time Avid Vapor sold several of the Kir Fanis tanks, but not too long ago stopped carrying them. They are now selling a clone of the Prive Tank and the Trap Tank.

To my knowledge, the only place to purchase these tanks now is GR Modders.


22mm to 32mm OD If you know the exact dimensions of the glass tube for the Prive/Special, IBTanked might be able to set you up.

Is there anywhere in the US to get Kir Fanis products? Or is GR Modders pretty much it?

Also...

Does anyone make a tube for the prive / prive special so they will take XL cartos?

I don't think there is a US retailer for K-Fanis stuff. If I'm not mistaken the prive special caps are 22mm, so they should fit any 22mm XL tank. Just get the correct size o-rings.

From what I have seen, the walls of the Prive Special tube are thinner where the end caps insert into the tube.

I know IBTanked has some thinner glass they can use. Kinda surprised Kir Fanis hasn't made an XL sized tube available yet... He said he was gonna like over a year ago... Seems like such a simple thing to do

Wonder if OCD would be open to the idea of me sending him a Prive tank so he can custom fit a tube to make it compatible with XL cartos. I'd hate to just send him the measurements, and I be wrong... LoL

Or I could use 35mm cartos instead of XL's... But I have so many XL's LoL

I know, I saw this... And I was pretty disappointed to say the least.

They were a vendor I associated with quality stuff... I still think the Cisco HH.357 is pretty fabulous, but really guys? Kir Fanis Chinese clones?

I almost bought one, then I saw it was a clone... And looking at the pictures the pips along the bottom cap don't match up with the top cap of the ProVari... Cheap

You could always buy another tank....

I'll bet OCD would go for you sending him the tank, he wouldn't want to make the wrong size either.

I would be interested in what you find out about who can do the custom glass. I would prefer the glass tubes too.

I've emailed a few places about making borosilicate or quartz glass for prive and prive special tanks. They want exact measurements so I have my calipers ready. When I get my prive's I'm going to measure and see who can cut custom glass for those tanks.

I want the EXACT measurements!!!!

The one that matters most is the Inner Diameter and the THICKNESS of the glass, since that's where the leaks happen (and what must fit to get the tank on the caps). Thanks!!

I have a pretty sizable order headed my way from Greece in a few weeks. If you're willing to settle for a poly XL tank, let me know and I'll add it to my order and forward it on when I get it. Just need to know if it's for a Prive or Prive Special, 1st and 2nd choice for color (clear, frosted, blue, yellow).

me too. Everything has ship date of Nov 14. Maybe they'll get those type 1 rings back in stock before my order ships.

I'd be fine with a poly XL tank for a Prive Special. Do you have a link where you can buy one? I haven't been able to find one at all
