Suitable replacement switch for Fireworm F1

[z_deskbound]

Can anyone recommend a suitable switch for the Fireworm F1 that will allow me to replace the drop-in with something more powerful like those on offer from Nailbender or VanIsleDSM?



Has anyone replaced a switch in this flashlight?



Thanks for any help.



p.s. am new to CPF and find all your postings fantastically helpful.

Has anyone found a switch that will fit?

I´ve replaced the origional with a nailbender SST-50 drop-in. Much better. Haven´t had the need to replace the switch yet so can´t help you there.

Found one!

The Sunwayman V11R switch (you get one extra with the light) is an almost direct fit. All you have to do is make the spring longer so it will press against the battery the way it should. Works like a charm!

And since the V11R can draw quite a current, it should be safe with most single xp-g and xm-l dropins IMO.
