The switch of my Streamlight Microstream was a bit difficult to click especially when pushing slightly diagonally, like when I'm gripping the light. This hack greatly improved the action of the button switch of the flashlight.

I used a bit of an old credit card and that worked flawlessly. Been using it for the past 2 years.

We all just watched the very best kind of upgrade/repair, simple enough that anyone can accomplish it, inexpensive (maybe FREE from the scrap heap), and effective at solving a problem. Video rating = A+++.

Great tip. I applied it to my Microstream and now I can really use it "properly", I mean: use the thumb to fully actuate the switch, instead of the index finger. As you said, the tail switch could be a bit "over-sensitive" on the half-switch action, but nothing to worry about. If I don't plan to use it in a long time then I just have to partially unscrew the head to disable it. Best part, adjusting the number of discs anyone can tailor it to personal taste.

Great easy mod. Love the micro with the exception of the tail switch. I couldn't fully depress it with my thumb. I had to use quite a bit of forch with my index finger. This mod made it perfect! Thanks for this mod!

This actually did work pretty good, not perfect but much better than it was. I took an old plastic SD card case and cut it into a circle with a pair of scissors and kept trimming it till it fit...Thanks for the tip.

I really need this on my Polytac X but I see no way to get under the rubber of the tail switch. Any idea?

I would not do this hack if you plan to carry it in the pocket. I think Streamlight designed it the way they did it for that reason. You don't want it to accidentally turn on in the pocket. I've had a flashlight do this on me. It got burning hot.
