Hey guys. I have a new A19 kit and want to make sure that I assemble it correctly. The real question (duh) is where does the included o-ring belong? From back to front I see it assembling as follows:

1. head (reflector slides in from the back and is secured by the light engine)
2. o-ring
3. window with AR coating on the interior facing the reflector
4. bezel ring

Does the o-ring go between the bezel ring and the window or between the head and the window?

Thanks.

From the front it goes bezel, lens, O-ring. The reflector is held secure by the LE and lens. If you back the bezel off, the LE can be screwed in farther, pushing the reflector up to meet the lens.

Thanks, Nake.

I was being an idiot and referring to the head as the bezel and the bezel as the retaining ring. Long day. I corrected my initial post.

So the o-ring goes under the window between the shelf of the head and the window all of which is secured by the bezel ring. Gotcha.
