I like a clickie interface but it appears to historically be a weak link in some great flashlights - whether it is the notorious Kroll back in the Arc LS days, the Arc4 sort of switch switch, Surefires clickie issues, Vital Gear FB body micro switches, Ra Clickie original run switches, etc... it seems like it has plagued many lights from the least expensive DX models, through many of the mid range lights (Fenix, Dereelight, Quark, etc..) to Surefire, Novatac and Ra.
I have a Vital Gear FB1 and the switch has the slightest flicker when latching, and when pressing hard on momentary, and I can't decide if I should get a new switch (which may be as bad), use my E1L/Z57 combination which has thus far been trouble free, or try a Fivemega body or just go with an Aleph body and McClickie. I sure do like the small size of the FB1 and the bezel down clip though... Heck my Novatac switch is starting to act a bit flaky at times and I've generally had excellent luck with those...
So is there any clickie switch that stands above the rest in terms of reliability?
