Inova x03 tailcap

[24601]

Does anyone know where I can get a different tailcap for my x03? I e-mailed Inova and told them that I think something is wrong with the tailcap on my light, but I'm starting to think that its just the way it's supposed to be.

The button operation sucks. I have to press it just right to get it to come on and I have to use too much pressure to hold it down.

The button on my surefire g2 is perfect. I'm just hoping that I can get something similar on my x03.

I had the same impression from the tailcap on my xo3 as well. The momentary function required way too much pressure to use. I just swapped the tailcap with the one on my Inova T3. I like the clickie switch better anyway.

I guess this is the way the INOVA engineered the light.
It's said that the twistie has a better reliability than a clickie, especially than a forward one .
I use to keep my tailcap from XO3 at the limit, so if I twist just a bit the light will turn on . In this case I don't find the pressure of pushing the rubber clikie as being too intense.
I had a pb with a tailcap from an INOVA T1 in the past - I sent the light to them ,they remediated the pb but with the expense of some additional scratches -

Thanks for the info.

Do you guys know wether or not the tailcap from the "bolt" would fit on the x03?

It seems to be made better, from the pictures at least.

I love this flashlight, it is very well made and I like the color of the light. I would prefer it to my surefire if it weren't for the tailcap.
