Hey everyone i just learned of a simple G2 mod to keep the G2 from accidental turn on and the ability to stand on end from a guy over at lightfighter.com.

Here goes:

If you have a mini-mag antiroll bezel cap (which many do) grab it, slide it on the tail cap of the G2. Slide it down just enough so that you can activate the button and still allow for the light to stand up on its end.

There you go a simple and cheap way to help with accidental turn on and the ability to stand on end.

Sorry for the cheezy instructions....

Here are some pics:

Thats a really good idea! I'm gonna have to get one. You have to buy the mini mag accessory pack don't you? Oh, well it worth it!!!

Damn Junior. That's awesome. Combine that with a Kroll clickie for a low-tech Rubbermaid SW02 lock-out combat tailcap /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif I know what I'm picking up after work today. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Both G2 and minimag antiroll bezel are black, so its sort of hard to see the color difference. I think you guys get the gist of it though.

Just tried it and it works great. Here are some photos:

Nice, easy and cheap way to mod your G2. I tried it on my 6P and C3 and it works great for having them tail stand. Coupled with ceiling bounce and you can turn your G2, 6P, C3, etc. into a hands-free area light.
