of both surfaces. Wipe off the O-ring and determine is if is still useable or not.
Installing O-ring
After checking and confirming that the O-ring groove is clean and not damaged, using your
fingertips, apply a thin uniform film of Inon grease on the O-ring. Install the O-ring in the
groove, making sure that it is seated uniformly and not twisted. Then add a little extra grease
to the O-ring, and liberally grease O-ring contact surface on the battery box. A little extra
grease is necessary due to friction when
screwing down the battery box cap. Slowly
screw down the battery box cap, making sure
you don't feel any excessive resistance, which
could mean the O-ring is binding or bearing
too much friction.
When the battery box cap is fully screwed down and seated on the O-ring surface, look at the
O-ring through the transparent edge of the cap. You should see a continuous, uniform contact
line (the "witness line") between the cap and O-ring. If the contact line is not uniform, or
twisted, contaminated with hair, lint or sand etc. there is a good chance the strobe will flood.
Remove cap, re-seat O-ring and/or remove contaminants as necessary.
