I have been making these as a composite. And the only other option is a foam seal that really didn't fit well. So I got off my a$$ and improved these.

The problem has allways been that the water can get into the lens easily. Now I made a lip that contours to the inside of the lens gasket. I made this from neoprene at 40 duro so it's nice and supple. I'm really happy with how this came out. I will a product ready to ship in 2 weeks. Who want's these?

It's even tight enough the friction fit holds the lens

It was better than the foam ring that never actually sealed anything. But, yes, there is a better answer. Just took me a bit to get back to it.

I am in. I have the old type on and they were far better than what I had or could find at a reasonable cost anywhere. But these look like just the thing we need.

How is it that Mark winds up with so much of my money?

I may wind up with a chunk, but as you can see I keep investing in more stuff. The triangle window seals are a prime example. As well as these. I do also have some new stuff coming. But its a month or 2 out. I have one really big item that will be ready to announce in about 5-6 weeks.
