Where to buy replacement O-ring?

    Hi,
    Just received a torch from DealExtreme today and found that the rubber o-ring sealing the battery cap is broken. Was wondering if anyone knew of shops in Dublin which typically stock these?
    I'm only looking to buy 1 (or as few as possible if they only come in packets) as online they seem to come in packets of 50 or 100.
    Have tried a couple of jewellers/watch shops but they had ones specifically for watches which weren't suitable.

    Any help appreciated...

    Hardware shops like Woodies etc. and motor factors/accessory shops often have assorted packs. My local factors has them.

    Failing that, if you see a Guinness service van at a pub, ask the guy for a 3/8 inch compression fitting. The o ring in those are about 12 mm;)

    Scrap the idea about the compression fitting. they're about 12 mm OUTSIDE diameter.
