Does anyone know of a water line fitting that goes from the hose to a 1/4 pic fitting? I want to use a Voss water bottle with a 1/4 pic fitting installed through a printed holder but these waste lines are tiny! Maybe a 1/16” Barb to 1/4”ptc stem?

Neptune recommends simply placing the Trident drain line into a larger drain tube or pipe for gravity draining without any air-tight fitting, otherwise it can impact the Trident's functionality.

I could just vent the bottle. I currently use just a regular bottle but have knocked it over a few times hence the holder.
I think what suncreast means by that is if you put the end of waste line to a barb it may change the flow rate causing issue with trident functionality.

I don’t understand how placing the line inside another line vs into a barb would change anything. I just don’t want anymore purple carpet!

What if the barb that you put into hose internal diameter is smaller then ?

Use the holder but just drill hole in top and feed waste line thru it
