If you hate the sensitive "hair trigger" switch on your Energizer 1xAA
Cree or Luxeon light (the one from Target), I have a mod that
increases the momentary switch travel before the light comes on
and the button pressure. This is not the same mod posted in the
LED forum 2 months ago. That one helped, but didn't cure the problem.
Here are the DIY directions for those of you who love to rip things apart,
and get them back together:

After this mod the switch feels more like a Surefire Z57 clicky, depending on how much spring pressure is used.
I've done this on a number of recent production Cree version lights
and they all had the same switch design. If for some reason the
earlier Luxeon version can't be modded, I'll return your tailcap and
refund your money.
Please send your Energizer 1xAA tailcap only with $3 cash, money order,
or Paypal for mod and return shipping in the CONUS. PM me for mailing and Paypal addresses.
