Tape switch unless you like the location/way/angle at which the button mounts...I don’t.

I prefer the Modbutton. Very nice tactile feel that just seems the perfect size to me. Pretty low profile too. The size of your rail comes into play too. I have a KAC RAS and on one rifle and the Surefire switch in a CD LCS was a little too tall, same with Modbutton Lite. Swapped a Modbutton and it was perfect. I have the Surefire with LCS on a slimmer MLOK rail its fine. Just something to think about.
Edit - I always run my switches on the top of rails. Couple of photos comparing the Surefire/LCS vs Modbutton Lite.

Good points: I prefer the Cloud Defensive “chassis” and I was talking about the angled Modbutton, not the flat one.
I don’t like the angled Mod button. |

I'm looking at the flat modlight.
Thanks for the photos |

 If you’re talking about this type of Modbutton, from my experience I prefer it over the Surefire/LCS. But that’s just my preference and it’s still a good combination. What light were you going with? If you’re going with a Modlite supposedly the Surefire switches can’t handle the current and won’t give you the full output. |

Though I am only powering an X400V, when shopping I was only looking at a $25 upcharge for a mod button lite that is favored for providing a better current. Not that it was really needed, but that it was a superior component... loved the minimalist profile too. Come to find out when installed, the modbutton’s angled plug was 100% needed to fit in front of the 6 o clock URX handguard panel (the hand stop toothed one) that now guards the support hand from interfering with the back of the weaponlight

I like it but am looking at the arisaka package for my new sol sage. Damn the unity tatical has angled sides then the modlight box characteristics. Unity looks a little more ergonomic |

if you got a surefire light stick with surefire stuff, duel switch tail cap with an sr07 and some zip ties
