I have had a problem with my NEXTORCH TA30 flashlight for some time.

 

When the flashlight is in the NEXTORCH holster and one's arms or other objects brush against the flashlight, it often switches on unnoticed. This resulted in the battery discharging unnoticed, and the flashlight being empty when next used.

 

Since I don't need the rotary switch anyway, I have designed a protective ring that can simply be slid onto the lamp from the rear. This ring completely covers the rotary switch and prevents the lamp from being switched on unintentionally.

The rear push-button switch remains freely accessible, and the lamp can be switched on via this.

FOR PRINTING:

I printed the ring from PETG and had a layer of PLA printed at the interfaces of the support structures so that the support structure can be easily removed and no residue or tedious rework is required at the connection points.
If this surface is not properly smooth due to residue, the ring does not fit well or cannot be slid onto the lamp properly.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to write to me or leave a comment.
