Hi Guys,
I am Mikedive from Germany an I do some things to get the PT20 housings better .
First I build a plug to combine the housing to all Sea and Sea strobes by using Matthias Oly TTL-C Converter.
Then, after the first housings lost the ports, I changed the PC lugs to V2A steel ones . The old lugs are milled out and a M4 threaded little pin is skrewed and glued in the wholes this gives better strongnes for mounting a Inon UWL 100 with Domeport to the PT20 . At my last trip to Egypt I have to Jump into the water because we do some drift dives ...... so I fall backside first, holding the PT20 with the Inon Port and with a Ys300 strobe in front of me with only one hand ....... and no problems .
Now I have a solution for the weak bulkhead I build a anodised aluminium socket with the Nikonos V specification for changeing without any changes to the housing just use a wrench put the old one out and the new one in, this is a perfekt solution with the Oly-TTL-C converter of Matthias. The sealing of the new one is a double sealing in the whole and at the housing and it is also mountable to the PT22, PT23, with some changes also to PT15 and PT10 or the PT18 or all othe housings with a wall up to 10 mm and a plane surface at about 20 mm in diameter and you need a 11 mm whole that is all. The socket is filled up with epoxi resin so no chance to a flooding through the plug connecton if the sealing is weak.
This solution also works with the Ikelite strobes ( DS125 / DS50(new) ), The Subtronic mini TTL and the Inon Z220 by using a Nikonos TTL cord.
