Hi. Has anyone tried replacing the tool aa's reverse clicky tailcap switch with a forward clicky one? Where can we buy such switch? Thanks.
I've thought for a long time how much nicer my Lumintop Tool AA would be with a forward clicky switch.
I hate reverse clicky switches so bad! I never understand why they are used in lights.
Me too, that was my main complaint on this light. I guess the clip could be better too.
Heres the hack job on the mountain electronics switch. Drops right in afterwards with a bigger switch boot without a nub inside.
I believe it was an e series tailcap boot but I could be wrong. The tailcap itself was unmodified. Im going to remove the nub on the stock boot and see if that will work instead :thumbsup:
Edit: yep it was an e series boot. The stock boot with nub cut out actually worked fine, no accidental activation or anything, but its not ideal because its putting some tension into the clicky and causes the boot to stick out a little bit. Variation switch to switch might cause it to activate from this alone id imagine. The surefire boot is big/tall enough not to have this issue.
