I currently have a sea frogs housing for my RX100 VII. It does come with leak detection, however after having the odd small leak from either grit in the o-rings or the button o-rings requiring a clean, I tend to find I don't really notice the onboard moisture detection systems beep or small LED, plus I don't like the idea that water is already inside the housing by the time it alerts me. I see that Vivid Housings offer the Leak Sentinel V6 - however, my housing does not have a bulkhead.

I'd considered purchasing a bulkhead fitting, asking a precision machine shop to drill the housing, and sealing the new bulkhead in place with JB weld (strong stuff!), which then allows me to install the leak sentinel - has anyone tried a custom install along these lines?
 
Write an email to info@vividhousings.com; they have a version of Leak Sentinel that fits the same threads as SeaFrogs VPS-100. I have one (V5XB) on my SeaFrogs Salted Line housing.
That would be great, however my Sea frogs RX100 VII (60m) housing does not have the port for the VPS-100, or any port for that matter.
