Thanks for posting that picture in your photo gallery, Firemedic. As you pointed out, the part of the adapter that fits against the O-ring is the problem that I'm having. There was definitely metal-on-metal contact when I used my DIN-to-yoke adapter on the Sherwood 5000 tank valves. If your tank valve were attached to a filled tank and you attached a DIN reg with the DR adapter and pressurized the system, you may find that it's difficult to get a good seal on that O-ring every time. Unfortunately, I don't own a tank with a Sherwood 5000 valve...or else I could post a similar picture of the problem.
I purchased my two DR adapters earlier this year from Dive Rite Express. Patrick, where and when did you purchase yours?
I've PM'ed a ScubaBoard member that has made posts on behalf of Dive Rite. I'll also send an email directly to Dive Rite to see if they can address this problem. We'll see what they say...
