I like the magnets I got from K&J, I just need to shorten the cap on the bottle.
Paul's magnets are just a little smaller than the 3/8" magnets.
See how the top of the cap is pushed to the left just a bit?
Pushes the whole bottle at an angle form there, but less than 1/8" at the bottom.

Just need it 1/4"-1/2" shorter. Then the tubing would pass the magnet and no deformation and the bottle would be vertical.

So, I got some different caps for the bottles. Much better fit with the larger magnets.

that is a nice cap for the mymod. looks good!
Tbev made them way back for something else, prototype I think. He managed to find a pair in the parts bin, one for each of the mods I have.

I didn't have them sent to Afghanistan, so they've been waiting for me to get home for a month.

Solved the issue nicely and should last for years.

I still might play with spacing the smaller magnets since I have them, but not high on the list, even lower now.

With the new 510 from CAM, the new magnets, and these caps I have all my nagging issues resolved.
(Well, need to seal the 510 better. No room for o-rings but Permatex should do fine.)
