First off people saying the screws are short are wrong, I thought the same thing at first, but you have to snap the sides together to the mount, the reason I gave this 1 star and will not recommend is because it's cheap plastic and if yoi tighten the screws to much,the nuts will break right thru the plastic and come out the other side. I do not recommend this product, whish they kept the aluminum ones.
Would recommend: No

The Cloud Defensive system was an excellent addition for my Streamlight ProTac switch. Securely holds switch and wire in place allowing for a nice controlled set up.
Pros:
- Securely holds switch in place
- Holds additional wire in place
Cons:
- Requires a lot of patience when mounting
Would recommend: Yes

Shame on Cloud Defense for discontinuing the aluminum model of this product. Fair warning! Do not buy this plastic garbage! Set nut pops right out and they do not align correctly. I have the aluminum version from cloud defense and it’s a tank. The knock off is $25 cheaper than this plastic garbage.
Cons:
- Cheap
- Not functional
- Even cheaper made

Had to use a forstner bit to drill the plastic out on the screw head side. The screws as others have stated in other reviews are not long enough. They aren’t long enough before you clamp onto a rail while test fitting and especially not long enough when you are. Second hole while on the gun, I drilled trough all of the plastic before catching a thread on the nut, there was enough plastic within to keep the screw tight. It will stay on the gun until it doesn’t then I’ll look for something else, you should also look for something else
Pros:
- Nice slot to hold pressure pad
Would recommend: No

I do prefer the aluminum version over this polymer style.
However, this is still the best way to protect your Streamlight switch and cord.
This does require a little patience to get everything together and the cord run in the groove correctly.
Well worth the price!
Pros:
- Stronger mounting for tape switch
- Cloud Defensive quality
Cons:
- Finicky to mount and protect cord
Would recommend: Yes

It took me some time to put the LCS together. The screws are long enough its just takes a bit of finagling. I definitely recommend reading the instructions. It's a better mounting solution than what StreamLight offers but certainly a challenge to get it together. Think i may just get the arisaka conversion tail cap and run a surefire tap switch but i am using the LCS for now.
Pros:
- better than StreamLight mount
Would recommend: Yes

I believe this is probably the best mounting solution for tape switch on the protac hlx. Only thing at all that wasn’t optimal in my opinion is installation can be kind of tricky but not impossible. May just be me having an off day. Regardless I’ve put a few hundreds through rifle since mounting and have yet to experience any issue from this mount.
