Chris,
I'm not sure about this as a solution.
Some friends and I were discussing non-wicking wire.
My (humble) opinion is that you need some way of transfering
air from the light head when you push the test tube on otherwise
the positive pressure will push it off.

I have noticed that it is much easier to remove or replace the
test tube when the lid is off the cannister.
