polyroly 7 Posted April 6 If you are presently in the Philippines and have a spare Battery compartment O ring and are prepared to send it DHL overnight express, I will pay you for your part and time and postage. Mine split and my spares were lost by the airlines - so I am out of luck as it is Easter week here and bringing in from HK etc will take almost 2 weeks. Can anyone save me?

makar0n 73 Posted April 6 (edited) Did you try contacting Divervision.com or fun-in.com.tw ? They are in that part of the world, might be able to get something faster than Europe/US. Otherwise this claims to be INON Phillipines but seems closed over the weekend - diverspoint.net Or try to contact INON direct and see who they can point you to. Or if you are somewhere in a general photohog area (like Anilao) just ask around, surely there will be divers there. And battery compartment looks the same as on Z240 so probably that o-ring fits as well. Good luck! Edited April 6 by makar0n 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polyroly 7 Posted April 6 Thanks Marker, yes, tried DiverVision, they have the part stocked but phoned dhl to check and they say, if they are honest, 10 calandra days min. To Dauin area. Splash in Manila might have stock, but only will know on Saturday. If it crosses the border, and has retail value, I am sunk, as dhl says it will be held for a week( this time of year). And I can’t ask a retailer to ship item as no value. I’m almost desperate enough to make a part my cutting down a larger ring, and staying above 40 feet. But it would be super risky! Bad plan. But I am soooo frustrated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barmaglot 262 Posted April 6 Can you measure the o-ring dimensions? They're a fairly generic item; if you have the dimensions, you can get one from a hardware supplier that is not related to scuba diving. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

troporobo 252 Posted April 6 Try contacting the Manila UW photo shop Splash Underwater Imaging. The owner is Jovic Santos and he is often in Anilao on the weekend. Email is splashuwimaging@gmail.com and cell number is +63 917 590 7152. Maybe also Mike Bartick who is the photo pro at Crystal Blue resort in Anilao, he could well have a spare to sell or loan. Cellphones are 0908 872 6401 and 0921 255 5155 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about your fellow divers? Most of us carry spares when traveling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
