I have purchase a Small Sun ZY-C10-S from Michael at OSTS and am trying to figure out how to purchase a tape switch. I don't know what the thread spec is on this light and can't find it online. I have another light with a tape switch but it doesn't fit.

I found BLF thread suggesting that http://www.manafont.com/product_info.php/ultrafire-pressure-switch-tail-part-replacement-30cm-p-5000 would work, but I don't quite understand how that operates. Do you remove the rubber part of the existing switch and replace it with that? That's no good; it's completely un-crud proof at that point.

I want something that will screw on to the back of my light and connect to a switch that turns the light ON with one press and OFF with another press.

What's the next step I need to take?
 
He didn't respond.

EDIT: I reached Michael yesterday by telephone. He didn't know the answer offhand, but offered to look into it. We'll see what happens there. And meantime, I'm looking elsewhere.
