B3 Bulkhead & Hotshoe Upgrade Kit for Ikelite DL & DLM Housings
The most reliable waterproof electrical flash connector available, trusted by professional underwater photographers worldwide for over 30 years. Hard anodized aluminum body with gold plated connectors.
In 2025, we updated to a new style connector which has the following advantages:
- Slimmer and more flexible cabling makes it easier to route the hotshoe cable around other accessories like a USB-C charging cable or HDMI monitor cable.
- Flat-type connector terminations reduce the likhood of accidental wire breakage.
- Low profile design provides more clearance between the top of the hotshoe and the inside of the housing.
- Non-locking safety connector allows the connector to release if cable is strained instead of stressing or breaking wires.
- Auto-Switching feature for Canon, Nikon, Olympus, OM System, and Panasonic cameras means you don't have to change hotshoes when you add a compatible TTL converter. Not available for Sony cameras.
All housings shipped from Ikelite on or after January 1, 2025 (serial number 81200 and higher) feature the new system.
Legacy housings below serial number 81200 can be upgraded using these kits. It is important to choose the correct kit depending on camera manufacturer and direction of the hotshoe cable (Nikon). Use the Hotshoe Reference Chart to select the correct kit for your Nikon camera.
Clear housings and older Ikelite housings featuring a right-angle bulkhead on the back of the housing are not compatible with these products. If you have non-working electronics, please contact us for upgrade opportunities.

How long will it take for my order to arrive after I make payment?
That depends on where you live and whether we have an item in stock or not. While we do have many items in stock, we don't carry everything. (For example, we do not stock most housings or ports as there are just too many!) If you need an item in a hurry, it's a good idea to contact us and find out if your item is in stock, or if we can get it in a hurry - we often can!
If we have it in stock, we can usually send it out as soon as we receive payment (1-3 business days), or you can pick it up. If an item is not in stock, we'll need to order it from our suppliers, which means it can take 1-2 weeks to arrive at your door (usually closer to a week).
Sometimes delivery can take longer, if our manufacturers are out of stock, for example, but this is unusual - we let customers know as soon as possible if something like this happens.
How do you ship my NZ orders?
We use New Zealand Post Courier to ship orders. New Zealand Post aims for next-day delivery nationwide between major towns and cities in the North Island. South Island delivery can take two days. If you require next-day delivery in South Island, choose the express shipping option for the South Island. If you spend over $250 get your shipping for free!
