How to install Streamlight pressure pad/switch

Start with the 2 mounting pieces. Snap it into one side of the rail first and bend it to wrap over the other side. Slide the pressure pad into the front first then side one side of the rear in. At this point push the rear of the pad towards the side that was already in and down. To remove it just bend the mount off of the rail it should come off.
This was such a struggle but once this was figured out it is easy to do with 2 hands
How you tucked the cable in?
Nice!! 😊
I stripped the cable when installing they got cord replacements?
Do I need to use the screws for the pressure pad? I’m afraid of scraping up my rail on my ar
What light is that?
I just fought these rubber peices today
Thank you!
I finally just used the peel-and-stick pad and stuck it onto the rail.
The rubber pieces are a joke
Is this using the m-lok mount or do you have your light on a picatinny?
Where’s the link to this
Most annoying install ever
Whats the adhesive stuff for
Anyone run into the flip up slights just barely touching and rubbing the light?
what mount are you using for the light?
Literally the worst design ever. I just spend the $23 and get a unity switch from China with the crane plug.
This worked for me, thanks
The first thing you do is throw those rubber pieces of crap in the garbage
Mine did not go on that easy
Dude, life saver. Just put the Protac 2.0 on my Spear MCX LT and couldn’t have done it without this clip.
Which light is this? I'm just getting into my first ar and looking for a light to add on
I just bought one of these and it reminds me of the surefire I had in the army. Lower quality but also less expensive! I was surprised to see that it comes with a mlok mount and the two sections that hold the pressure pad onto the rail. The sections are dual functioning as they also work as a cable management option! Awesome product for a civilian option! I’ve owned a few different streamlights in the past and this is definitely one of the best if not the best I’ve owned!
I hate these things after like 2 hrs I gave up and ordered an after market mount lol
Is this a joke
The cord won’t get hot and kept pushed into it like that close to the barrel?
i effed with these for 3 hours. i have probably never been that mad.
I recommend putting the top in last as the plastic corner is easier to push in
Yeah I just messed with that thing for almost 2 hours. Ugh
Wish i looked up a how to before i spent an hour foolin with mine the wrong way
What front back up sight are you using ?
I've found that getting both ends onto the pic rail THEN snapping the entire pad in at once is the best method. Also the quickest and least frustrating
Yeah i just said fuck it and zip tied it to the top of the rail. Hopefully thats enough. Im not close to the gas tube so i should be good??
The wire is going to burn up tucked inside the hand guard like that if there is contact.
You skipped all the cussing and about a dozen WTF's
