I'm a Fish!
I'm sure one of the board experts can answer this question for me. Will the DIN conversion kit for the scubapro MK10, MK14, MK16, MK17, MK18, MK20, MK25, work on the MK5 or does it require a special kit? This assuming the MK is convertable to DIN.

Thanks in advance
 
any idea where I might find a conversion kit?
 
The Mk5 din is different from the others but I have heard and experimented with making it work. Thread size is correct and, with the universal retainer, you can install an O-ring on the side that will make a seal. But the saddle must be left off as it will bind on the din wheel. And I'm not really comfortable with which part is absorbing the torque when you tighten the retainer. I suspect the o-ring may be getting crushed more than it should. But it does seem to work.

You can find Mk5 din adapters in any shop that sells hen's teeth. Good Luck
 
If I have a DIN conversion that fits a Scubapro MK20 or 25, will it also work on a Mk10?
Thanks
MPM
