For VFG's that don't have an internal pocket like the TD one, how have you attached a tapeswitch to your VFG?  Velcro?  Electrical tape?  Would love to hear the way people have addressed this.

 The tapeswitch I got from Brightflashlights for my surefire G2 came with a rubber sleeve that  fits  snug and secure over a vertical grip.   I'm using a TD grip, even with the  switch recess I use the rubber sleeve.

you can use a bycycle inner tube,  just make sure you get the right size and just cut it to the width you want, it works great

I wondered what the rubber tube that came with my Pentagon MS2 was for...

Go to the "repair" area of your local bike shop.  Ask them to dig in their garbage.  I got a whole bagfull of different sizes.  MANY excellent uses. headbang.gif

I also put a nice wide strip on my pistol grip.  Provides excellent grip w/o having to attach that sticky sandpaper skateboard tape.

+1 on the bike innertube. I no longer run my light with a pressure switch, but the innertube is still there!
