    Aw.. worth a shot. How about the tail cap idea?

    Their socket is proprietary, as far as I know. It would not be cost effective to duplicate it. Perhaps an adapter could be made that goes between a UE tailcap and the streamlight. But again, you'd be looking at spending more than the light costs in order to use Surefire remote switches. I guess that might be worth it to some people?

    Ouch... Was hoping something like this could be done for $60-80 retail at most. Oh well, thanks for letting me know.

    I could have worded that better. An adapter might be $20. Then add a UE tailcap and SR07 switch for $115.

    Honest question: are you willing to spend that much on the entire setup?

    I was interested in purchasing just 1 adapter for at most $80, but if the adapter is $20-30, I'd buy 3-4 immediately. If it can be done, cash, credit, check, money order, whichever is preferred, I'll send it ASAP.

    My plan is/was Protac Rail Mount HL-X, UE Tail cap, TNVC/Unity Tactical TAPS

    The dual fuel capability of the Protac HL-X is what I'm primarily drawn to (the lumen and candela output is a bonus). It's unfortunate that Streamlight had the foresight to go with the Scout body/mounting system but went with their proprietary thread for the tailcap.

    I drew out a few concepts today and it looks like it will be possible, and shouldn't be very expensive. I don't have an ETA at this point, of course, but we're going forward with the adapter.
