question for Aromed user

[dampo]

I am looking for a silicone tube to connect my Volcano to a glass bong.
Having a hard time finding this, one of my local suppliers as a tube for sale which is said to fit a Aromed.
So my question: could a Aromed user tell me what the diameter is?
thanks

I used to own the Aromed. I couldn't recall the inner diameter but I did a very quick Google search for "Aromed whip". Maybe this can help?

yes I actually mailed with them earlier, they haven't got anything with a bigger inner diameter.
I don't believe this is a aromed whip though

The whips I had for my Aromed were very stretchy. So the ID could be increased. Just keep searching for Aromed whip/hose, see what options there are. Then maybe just pick one up and try? Good luck anyway.

this shop actually went to the trouble of measuring inside and outside diameter, inside diameter was about 10 mm, which is close enough.
The object is Magic-Flight water pipe mouthpiece
so I guess I'm good, thanks for chipping in.

I forgot to mention I'm in Europe, shipping costs and duties are prohibitively expensive.

When you order from US, try and keep it below VAT threshold. For us in UK, that is £15. Otherwise VAT is applied at 20%, plus £8 handling fee.

Maybe your threshold is higher? So do a currency conversion also to see if you can duck it. It also helps if the shipping cost is excluded from the declaration. Make it plain and simple to the buggars- "Piss off dudes- It's LESS than £15. LESS! LE..."
You really do have to actually spell it out to them at times it seems, on top of the outright injudtice to begin!

Sorry, they rile me up these robbers. It does suck but we just gotta pay, at least be well aware of what to expect etc.

That is the best tubing I have found so far..........eBay otherwise for best price.

@Alexis
it's not just duties and VAT, shipping costs are regularly really really high.
I so often see things I want/need on US sites, if they do ship internationally, the costs are usually very high.

Sorry, they rile me up these robbers

I couldn't agree more!

There are specific glass adapters to connect a volcano to glass. IIRC verdampfnochmal.de has it .
Beside of that, I find all the stuff useless since you can easily put a Volcano bag (with the mouthpiece on) on top of a female 18mm joint and do the same thing at no cost.

I actually had an e-mail exchange with verdampfnochmal.de, and they said they couldn't help me achieve what I want.
I don't want to use the bag any more, just straight connection between Volcano and glass.

I'm not sure I'd be OK with a hose pushed over the valve end as a permanent thing, although I have tried it once or twice.
I would probably look into making a Muzzmod for Volcano Easy valve to whip to glass, it's feasible.

Holy shit,
OK, scratch the above....
Your question prompted to me to browse a French site for answers, and I closely re-examined an item which I wrongly thought inserted into bags.
But now they have new pictures and I translated the text, well holy shit.
They have done it, years ago!

I was going to get a bag to glass adapter soon, but this would be fun!
Thanks for making me examine it closer!

This seems to be a neat solution, good find!
I wrote in an earlier post that I finally found my tube, it transpired the seller need glasses.
They told me the Magic-Flight water pipe mouthpiece
inner diameter was 10mm, it turns out to be 5.5 mm.
In the meantime I've finally found a supplier of heat resistant foodgrade silicone tubing here in NL, So I just ordered one. My quest seems to be over.
