Hi!
I was wondering about the reservoirs...
What could be added to make it more than multioptional.
I am thinking this way...
What do you think?
The reservoir will be able to extend. with this link and another acrylic tube like on pictures...

You already know what I think... :D
Is not exactly what I had in mind, but this design offers more flexibility
Good Idea. . Although since you pretty much have to mount them upright space would be a concern..
Maybe a bottom that would allow you to connect 2 side by side?
A sketch would be appreceated to understand fully.Quote:

I like the idea of joining more togther but only good for a big case!
HOLY **** :eek:
Now that is extreme! :clap:
What about a 5 loop compatible version for extreme users, like us lol?
in other words could you add 2 more here:

This is what I came up with...
Not that I re-invented the wheel or something because Eddy was already thinking on what he's posted here today BEFORE I asked him if he could make this as a one-off:

The reason why I asked for it is because it should make tube routing easier, and because it should help with the issue of air bubbles being sucked back by the :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing maelstrom.
In my case space is not an issue because this is for my PC-343B, which I'm working on atm.
Very nice, but do you think you will do a low profile square version like the swiftech micro, but with the barbs in the same position as your cylindrical res?
Nice idea;)
A modular reservoir system would be great! Bottoms/tops/middle pieces could be made to work with all kinds of things....such as a bottom that fits over a DDC!
sweet idea Eddy
I love your block and everything else
Good Idea
I dont know you guys but I like the drives that can be inserted into the 5 1/4 bay
why dont you make a 2 in 1 res for dual loop systems; a really tall one, maybe double the size of 2 150ml ones.
then again, that would be really long and not fit in most cases.
hey, how about a LEVITATING reservoir using magnets. heh, a revolving one would make flow better i bet.
Anodized chrome copper tube maybe? Perhaps a better mounting system via hooks and the like without screws? Everytime I snap your acrylic res into those holders, I cringe. Just throwing ideas out there.
Is eddie's pic still up?
I can't get it to show for some reason.
Didn't last night for me either, but they are back now.Quote:

Some sketchup models to download from your site would help us with planning our EK layouts.
I want to be able to try this or that and be thinking about my build. Not having to think and model three reservoirs to see how they fit in my layout.
He he :)Quote:

I was thinking of making a ddc top that would have the thread for EK reservoir. So the acrilic tube would screwed on the DDC top.Quote:

You know, i think it is really something to see you here asking for opinion on your future projects\products. After all, we are the customers ;) And IMO, this is what makes you special Eddy! And it's also why i'll keep buying your products. I love my Res. Once the bleeding is done, the Res is fantastic. I also love my FC 8800GTX block. :up:
mad props to that design Eddy, i REALLY like that idea!!! you and petra should get talking about it, rather quickly i might add because i really think there is some potential in that design!Quote:

wow interesting ideas...:clap:
Eddy you should do some artistic resevoirs combined with uber performance (which you obviously have down). If you take ur stuff and combine with the appearance of TribalOVERKILLS stuff you would have a work of art.
