This is an upgraded tape switch that clips on to a picatinny rail. It helps manage the switch and wire that goes with a firearm mounted light. The switch also has groves in it for zip ties to ensure that the switch remains attached under adverse situations.

This is a substantial upgrade above the standard tape switch. It attaches securely to any 1913 rail with 4" of available space and allows momentary lighting and a click on/off option available without shifting the grip on the gun.

This system solves the issue of having to run velcro for mounting or adding bulky tape pad adaptors. The pressure switch and constant on are set perfectly for easy control access. Make sure to order one with a longer cord. Great Product! Highly Recommended!

I bought the SR07-D-IT to run both my PEQ-15 and Surefire Scout light from one switch assembly. Two buttons on the tape switch for either unit allows you to activate them with minimal finger/thumb travel. Also fantastic for reducing clutter on your rail.

I was very pleased with this product, as it is perfect for my application. The only downside is that I was expecting a more secure connection between the switch and the rail; this may not be a problem at all, and may in fact be trivial.

Pros:  Integrated rail mount, constant on/off as well, lightweight and available in mulitple lengths.

The SR07 switch is the perfect length for mounting your switch on the top rail for use with your thumb. I had bought two of these switches to replace the ST07 switches that came with my two Surefire mini-scout weapon lights. The ST switches they come with do not allow you to have a constant on feature. The SR07 switches have a separate button that when pressed will keep the light on for you so you don't have to hold the pressure pad in the whole time. This is great for search and rescue operations. Also, you don't have to deal with any adhesive or glue to keep the switches on. They mount very firmly to the weaver rails on your rifle. I highly recommend these over the stock Surefire switches that come with most weapon lights.
