(Continued from: 1st~3rd batch)

Nov.17 Updated: 6th batch ready. I reserved some and will PM who posted interests. Thanks.

Oct. 23 Updated: There's some delay for ordering needed parts. New batch should be ready in early November. Thanks.


Oct.7 Updated: ALL SOLD. Thanks.

Oct.6 Updated: I've release switches that were reserved for one CPFer. They're the last for this batch.

Oct.1 updated: The reseller of the core switch sold me a few switches with the old price and I made a small batch. Some sold to CPFers who PM me previously and I put the rest for sale. Next time I need to order a large batch to keep the same price. Thus, there's no promise for next batch at this moment. Thanks.


For sale: custom made forward-clicky switch for Surefire 6P/G2 and similar.

I didn't have many SF tailcap to test. My friend told me it fits P/G/C/Z tailcap and L5/L6/M2/M3/M4. The clicky feel is similar to SF clicky. Switch is rated 3A max, please make sure your application won't exceed the limit. Switch manufacturer said over-current for extended period will cause the internal spring to deform and damaged the switch permanently.

Each set comes with one switch and one rubber cap. The retaining ring is made from brass. The switch is forward-clicky type, half press to momentary on and full click to constant on.

==============================================
Here's the install instruction:
SFSW-Install-01.jpg

1. Prepare your tailcap (G2 for example) and the switch
2. Pull out the spring first.
3. Use plier to pull out the core.
4. Use plier or tweezer to unscrew the retaining ring. (some tailcap is glued). Take out the retaining ring and original rubber cap.
5. Put the new rubber cap in the tailcap
6. Use needle point piler or tweezer to screw tight the retaining ring.

If it's hex screw (not rivet) in your tailcap. You could use a plier(or extension tube) to hold the core and unscrew it with a hex wrench. The thread is seperate in two sections. Install the new switch and screw the retaining ring further, it'll still works.

If your tailcap is old type with large rubber cap. The switch won't work!

Is it the same price when paying with credit card? Previously it was +4%.

Re: FS: custom made forward-clicky switch for SF P/G/C/Z tailcap

Sorry if this has already been asked but do these work in the none LOTC on older model G2's, i.e. the ones where the switch bit just falls out of the cap?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, I didn't have non-LOTC G2 tailcap at hand. Is the tailcap shorter about 4mm compared to new LOTC one? If so, as I know it won't work.

Thanks.
