That is the way the executive series are coming now from the factory, I should know. I was at a show this past weekend and someone wanted a E1E and he opened it and when the tailcap was twisted the light didn't work. Push the tailcap slightly and it would work. I thought man the light is defective. Opened up 2 more and the same thing. Finally found one with the old style tailcap and sold that one. Then finally realized it was a clicky. Didn't realize they were coming out yet, but they are on all the new ones. Frank if you are reading this, the 3 I tried were not defective, duh!
