Hello. I just returned from Cozumel and had a great trip. I did lose one day with the camera as the O ring on my Olympus PT-058 Housing for my TG-5 was stretched and didn't want to seal correctly. I wasn't able to get another O ring in Coz, but through patience and delicate use of toothpicks I was able to get the O ring fully seated and housing closed for the last day of diving. This is the second O ring I have used in approx. 8 trips. I am curious if I should be taking the O ring out when I am not using the camera? I just ordered two more O rings so that I am ready for my next trip in February, but I would like to be able to get more than 4 trips out of an O ring. Would there be less stretching of the O ring this way? Any suggestions are appreciated.
