ModButton Lite is a smaller lighter weight cousin to the original ModButton. The switch features the same momentary only activation as the original ModButton. It also features the same high power cable and switch from ModButton but in a slightly smaller package without the integrated mount. The switch is made from injection-molded plastic and fully potted to ensure a durable long lasting switch.
ModButton Lite utilizes a patented Unity Tactical design which supports power delivery needed by the next generation of high output weapon lights. A Unity built Surefire® compatible cable lead allows ModButton Lite to be backwardly compatible with all Surefire® Arisaka and Modlite Scout bodies as well as Surefire UE and DS00 tail caps. If constant on is a requirement we recommend using a Surefire DS00 tail cap which can be found here.
One problem that exists today is older legacy switches are not able to pass the current needed to run current and future generation lights. These older switch designs do not allow Modlite light heads to run at full power. Typically these switches reduce output by 15-20%. ModButton Lite utilizes an updated plug design as well as improved electronics that allow the Mod Button Lite to output at full power so all the lumens and candela can be put to good use.
ModButton Lite is waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes and features more durable buttons than many competing pressure switches on the market.
The package includes the switch PIC mounting rail and mounting hardware only. An MLOK adapter kit is available.

Modlite button works as it should. I prefer this over the Surefire buttons. Perfect length of wire and small foot print on top of rail.

The modlite button works great with my surefire scout and don’t have any complaints. I definitely prefer this over the tape the normal surefire tape switch. Construction is solid, the button itself is has a great tactile feel to it, and it really helps clean up a build up any build that is running a laser module.

I swapped to a Modbutton Lite from Surefire. As far as the product goes alone; it is well made, the pad itself is tactile and predictable, I simply have no complaints. Compared to the Surefire switches I was using before I’d suggest it is leaps and bounds better. Compared to the SR07/SR09 from Surefire, one Modbutton lite takes up maybe 1/3 the rail space and the cable management is superior at the cost of no more than 1/4 of an inch extra height. Compared to the dual lead Surefire SRD0X-D-IT, two Modbutton Lite’s together take up 2/3 the rail space, have better cable management, and actually sit lower. The mounting system used by the Modbutton is significantly tougher than Surefire’s SR07/SR09/D-IT. Lastly, based on what I’ve seen they are less expensive than Surefire’s and the Unity Tactical options (the latter of which I haven’t tried but I am sure the products are excellent).
