Ideas and instructions for custom tail cap - no switch

[pados1002_Alex_13]

Hey guys, after my first custom host with rear end tail cap switch i d like to make one with side push button latching switch. So i want my rear end to have a threaded cap but without a switch. Just a board and spring.
How do you recommend to mount a blank battery board on a cap? By tight fitting or somehow gluing the board?
It will be the first time trying it so i apologize for this, maybe, stupid question!

Hi,
You can do it the tail cap is the ground to the host , the contact board needs to be in contact with the tailcap . On the board you should see copper traces that need to contact the Aluminum and just solder a spring or a solder blob.

@Lifetime17 thank you for your answer kind sir i just wonder how to make the board sit in the cap? By tight tolerances?

Hi
First it depends on how big the board is
Then you will need the brass rings at 17mm for a 16.8mm board if that’s the size you will be using
you will need the right size counter bore
Survival Laser has boards and brass rings
