It's very simple, Paul.
1. Using a .050 Allen key (hex key) - you'll need a long-arm version - unscrew the screw in the bottom of the body.
2. Place the screw you just removed through the hole in the switch, so that the flat side of the switch will be down when installed correctly. (This means the head of the screw and the switch parts are on the same side.)
3. Install the screw and switch back into the tapped hole in the bottom of the body. Be sure to centre the switch as much as possible, to ensure reliable switching.
4. Put the light back together and enjoy the 2-stage switching! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Well I feel stupid!! I had assumed that the small bump at the bottom of the tube was a solder blob......
In any case, Thanks! Took all of about 15 secs and works like a dream.
BTW, the new O ring is also a great fix. What a difference in the feel. Thanks again,
Paul
