Nicely done Mike, I was about to post up something but you made my little tinkering project look like a popsicle stick cabin job, Way to think outside the box, very sweet!
Oh man, I have to follow that wild mod?! I trimmed and shimmed a reverse click switch so my SingFire-75B would tailstand, put a piece of diffuser material between the reflector and the lens and pencil modded the NMM cap… It is my new go-to indoor light for after dark toilet trips.
The “firmware” for this flashlight has Next Mode Memory. Every time you turn it OFF it remembers what mode it was in, next time you turn it on it skips to the next mode, very annoying. It can be forced to quickly forget by tracing a pencil lead over the capacitor that holds charge to the IC.
I didn’t mod the switch boot, but the switch itself. I just cut enough off to clear the barrel(?). When that wasn’t enough to clear the switch boot, I put a ring of Venician Blind cord between the boot and the lip it sits on. Hope that helps!
