[tursiops]

The optical fiber cable from strobe to the little hole on a Nauticam or TG housing has a small o-ring on it. What size is that o-ring?

It provides a friction fit to hold the optical cable in the hole on the camera.

Perfect. 50 for less than $6; I only need a few. Anybody want some? DM me and I'll drop a few in an envelope.

But then why is it on your cord itself?
Is it a spare?
