Hi,

Long long ago, in a galaxy not far away, Nekomane made tailstanding tailcaps for L5/U2/C*/M* lights (ie. z59/z58 clickies). He gave me the rights to make them, and I was able to produce a very small batch a little less long ago, still in the same galaxy.

Now, after many more years, I have a chance to make these again.

I love these and only have one myself, for my Milkyspit L5 mod, but it really adds so much utility to the light, because now I can illuminate a room, truck bed, etc., with the tailstanding capability!

The pictures below are of the last run, but the new one will look the same or better, as I found a very good machinist =) They will be in Aluminum with HAIII anodize - right now they will be all black, but if there is sufficient interest in natural, I can do it so please lmk if you have a color preference.

Price: $40 + $4 shipping per order (regardless of how many you order).

How to order: Please post here as I have a very limited number of spots, and I will update the second post with a running list.

Details on the tailcap!

These tailcaps were custom-machined, and are designed to fit your L5, U2, C2, C3, M2, M3, you get the picture =) For those who like part numbers, this will fit the z58/z59 clicky switches.

The crowning feature of this tailcap is that it allows you to tailstand! your light. I'd always wanted this for my custom L5, as it just adds such greater utility to an already great light.

Notice the tailstand:

Yeah!


And my epically tailstanding 1000lumen Milkyspit L5 EDC flashlight:

Love it!



Note: the part you'll get is this (the actual tailcap bit, not the switch itself):

Of course, I'll include instructions (very easy) on how to swap the bit out.
