Sorry for the stupid question, but I was wondering how the the "tactical" (twist for constant, push for momentary) tailswitches work, or even just twist tailcaps in general.
I know there's a spring in there that both holds the battery in place to minimize rattling/movement and acts as a negative contact (assuming + is at the head). Is there another contact below the spring that's connected to the body (GND) that makes contact with the spring as the tailcap is pushed in or tightened? If so, where does the bottom contact touch the spring?...at the outter edges of the spring? Thanks, and sorry for my stupidity.
