hello drpaul and welcome to the CPF!

I get this question a lot. here's the standard blurb:

The LS used a very common switch called the Kroll clicky push button. This switch is used in several other brands, which explains why it is so common.

It's actually made by Judco for the Streamlight JR and distributed by Kroll international. They don't sell single quantity but there are several places on the web that do. For example:

http://theledguy.chainreactionweb.c...kroll&osCsid=1f3f112719b1395d3aa3a08e21e83a0f this site sells just the boot for $1.

http://www.em-mgt.com/LED/Accessories.html

http://www.flashlightlens.com/item--Kroll-Clickie-Tailcap-Switch--kroll.html

The switch usually goes for $5.

Also, the switch is fairly easy to repair.

Stuck on: side spring is tangled with inside plunger. Repair: untangle: time: less than 1 minute

Won't light: side spring has corrosion mark where it contacts plunger. Repair: spin spring so fresh metal is used. Time: less than 1 minute

I picked the Kroll for the LS series because it is such a popular and reliable switch. With a little know-how, it should never leave you in the dark.

Here's a thread where I show how to service the kroll:
