My Surefire E2L switch completely broke after about 8 or 9 years of use.

That sucks. This is why I don't buy Surefire, no spare parts are available.
Huh? :thinking:
SureFire has always sent me replacement tailcaps without charge, most recently for an EB2 where the rubber boot wore through to expose the red clicky button.
4Sevens had some definite tailcap switch problems on their Quarks and sold a pin wrench so that you could take apart the tailcap on their early lights and try to fix the clicky switch.
Henry replaced one of the clicky tailcaps on an HDS EDC years ago. It was a model that had thin wires going along the side of the battery. I've got a Rotary with a button that's a little flakey, I might need to send it in for repair.
I was scratching my head as well after reading that post. I have contacted Surefire over the years requesting replacement tailcaps and have never had an issue. Their customer service folks have always been very nice and sent me replacements at no charge.
And, if the "clicky" switch fails in a small flashlight with a "pressed" in installed switch (as contrasted with screwed in installation), do you have a brick?
