Review: Convoy S2+ Remote Switch

Written review of the Convoy S2+ remote switch, which provides tail switch like functionality, and additionally, momentary control.

Did you get a chance to measure the total wire resistance of the switch?
To measure the resistance, click the reverse clicky to on, set a multimeter to Resistance mode (denoted with an Ω) and touch one of the probes to the tailcap spring and the other to the blank metal ring inside the tailcap.

What are the ergonomics of the switch like? Could it be operated easily with gloves?

Do you have any long-term experience using the remote switch?

Hi, I’ve since passed it into a friend, so I’m unable to answer these questions. Sorry.

Nice

DMM readings were all over the place, going from > 1ohm to some negative net readings when canceling lead resistance.

LCR meter to the rescue:

I was surprised by those readings, do ~80mohm make sense?
Good to recall they were taken at 0.6V

you can uses Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia
basically apply a current with power supply and measure voltage with a DMM
