Where do I put the o ring? And do I need it in place before diving??

Mine shipped with O-rings installed and a spare set. Yes, you need them in place before diving. When you twist off the head they go under the head around the open end. If you don't see the grooves they are probably already in place.

it already comes with o-rings, save the spare o-ring to replace those already installed should the light last longer than the 5 seconds it lasted me.

Comes with the light and there's some spares included. You don't have to do anything initially

Not an o ring. it's a seal. As from the factory. O ring is in the other guys package. It comes with all you need and fits great.

You should be able to remove one of the two o-rings that seal the lamp head & take it to an Ace Hardware store where you can match it to their stock 0-rings. The manufacturer also included a spare o-ring located at at the base of the flashlight body threads that does not seal anything. I have found that the o-ring grease has a tendency to collect sand when used around the beach. Be sure to use a finger or soft cloth to wipe off any material that has gotten embedded in the grease. Also clean the inside of the lamp head. You may need to use a little alcohol to help with the cleaning. Then apply fresh o-ring grease on the rubber rings & lamp head sealing surface. You can find the o-ring grease at any dive shop or at Home Depot in plumbing. Depot also carries o-rings, but Ace has loose ones you can match to.

I suggest you just take the O ring, and/or the lid to any local pool supply store, and they should be able to match it up or order you one.

The next time you get it off, and before resealing it, you should always use a little bit of Vaseline to lube the threads of the housing. If you do that, the next time you remove it, it will be much easier. A tiny amount of Vaseline also helps seat the O-ring properly. Vinegar and a warm water soak is also recommended for your first removal. I have not tried that, but it is in the instructions and makes a lot of sense.

I would just keep the ones that come with it. I actually bought a different type to try out (the O style ring that doesn't clamp around your oar). Stupid in hindsight but they dinged up the aluminum real quick and the aluminum of the oar causes them to slide too much. You would need to find some type of sleeve to put on to keep them from sliding if you went that route (I'm assuming the other responder below was smarter than me and went that route). Using the ones included work fine and get the job done.

My o-ring leaked at first, and my dad jut kept taking it off and putting it back on and tightened it until it quit leaking. I thing what happened is that it wasn't going o the threads correctly. I hope this help you!!! Be blessed!!!

No, GM doesn't use an o ring on this.....it is a larger seal. I just wiped it, installed the filter, and it works great. I've actually done 2 transmissions like this with no problem. The larger seal stays in place....don't try to remove it.

I used a dental pick. You simply put the tip of the pick under the black O-Ring and remove it. It improved the flow and function measurably.

You want to put it around the receiver (where the ESC and Servo plugs in. Then use the rubber band to seal it.It's just to help prevent water from getting in those connections. I dint use it anymore because now I can tell if there is too much water inside the hull when my rudder starts twitching.

At any department store or hardware store. Take your old broken o-ring and they will help you match it up to the best fit. I've done this before and I grabbed a whole pack of them because it's a constant problem. Also, if you have another that is torn or wore and if it leaks a little then you can rub vaseline around it to help seal the o-ring. Hope this helps.

The short term answer is yes. After several months the O-Ring will go and the pressure will be diminished and you will have to purchase an expensive refurbishment kit. If I didn't love this unit so much I would be pissed.

There's an O-ring but the problem is the valve stem seal which is a 10mm diameter rubber disc. I emailed the seller as suggested by TT and will hopefully hear something soon. I've found many re-buildable auto drains for sale but finding parts has proven difficult.

Yes.But beware, the O-Ring can be really difficult to change if you don't know the trick how (so you can't just simply pull it out easily). Most of the time it is not necessary to change anyway. My O-Ring was really snug, so I did not change it and just saved it for a rainy day.

It's really very easy. First, it's best to put vegetable oil on the rubber O ring...it makes for a tight fit. After that fill the container with water and snug the top on. Do not over tighten. If it overflows tighten top a little more. It works like a charm everytime.

Yes, turn it just enough for it go on and off. I had no problems with it on a few dives.

It sounds like the O Ring is stuck. You may tear the O Ring up getting it off. There is a lot of corrosion there. When you put it back on, put clear waterproof grease around the O Ring and the place it fits in. Also around the threads. I had the same problem until I did this.
