Silicone o-rings:detecting: revisted.

Some of you may have read my previous post about me buying silicone o-rings for the ATpro. I had bought 7/16 OD o-rings the first time. They fit real tight on the connectors and let them slip right in with no issues. But then I thought that Garrett may have meant 7/16 ID o-rings? So I bought some of these. I can tell you with 100% certainty that this is the o-ring size that is correct. But even being silicone with fresh grease on them they still want to slip out of the groove and get cut or sheared. I'm glad I bought a bag of 100.
 
I haven't had any trouble out of my orings. I bought a tube called Waterproof Lube Tube. It is a Multi Purpose Lubricant. I bought it at my local pool supply house. It is used to lubricate O-rings. Man it is working very well. I lube them every 2-3 weeks. Haven't been in the water yet.
 
The water proof connectors each have a replaceable O-ring. I was trying to find one that slipped in easier than the stock one.
