SeaLife,
Need a little help here. I have a DC1200 with the Digital Pro Strobe and mount. After a few dives (less than 10) I noticed the head of the strobe spun very easily and was causing me difficulty aiming the flash underwater. It would not stay in the position I wanted.
As I surfaced, I noticed the head of the strobe completely separated from the flex-link arm. Fortunately the flash link saved me from losing the head of the strobe in the water altogether. Upon inspection after removing a ball link from the flex-link arm, I realized the allen bolt at the end of the bungee had worked it self free from the head of the strobe.
I screwed the bolt back on and the head of the strobe was nice and tight. Snapped the link back together and I was in business. I thought this had fixed the problem, but after one dive, the head is loose again and I am afraid it will come off at depth.
Is this a design flaw or just a faulty unit? Is there a simple solution to this as some locktite, or shall I send it back to SeaLife?
