Fenix Remote Switch (TK12, TA20, TA21)

Fenix Remote SwitchWorks great, switches on the pad are a little finicky, the regular switch is great. It's very nice to have 2 different on/off switches with the remote. I'll see if it holds up but it's good for now.

This does work on my TK21 even though it isn't listed as being compatible. It has to be screwed in very tight, but it does work

I haven't yet used this in a "need to use" application. I have only been fiddling around with it so far. The tape switch seems pretty solid. The light activates whenever the tape is depressed. The switch is made from silicon and when depressed, has a solid click to it no matter where it is depressed. The cap also has a mechanical switch that overrides the tape switch when it is activated. I thought the coil was going to be saggy, but it stays coiled and keeps the length of the cable at a minimum. For the price, purchasing it was a no brainer. Although this may see some weapon applications, I am looking to also use it for bike applications. I am thinking about mounting it on the grips in the area where my fingertips naturally lie.

Buy Fenix Remote Switch (TK12, TA20, TA21) Now

I originally bought this for use with a Fenix flashlight mounted on my shotgun with the 5598 NEBO PROTEC Universal Long Gun Light Mount, and it works well for that. However, I stopped using this remote switch for a couple of reasons:

1) It should have come with some way to mount it. I recommend using 3M's Command tape, which grips well and releases cleanly.

2) This remote switch takes a firm press to activate, and I find that distracting.

3) Fenix flashlights already have a momentary-on feature to their tailcap switches. By mounting my Fenix light slightly off center, I am able to touch my light's tailcap when my hand is on properly positioned on the forend. This gives me both momentary and full-on light without having to worry about the cord getting in the way or not having depressed the switch firmly enough.

If you need a remote switch for your Fenix light, this works exactly as advertised.

The switch does everything it should. I have it paired with a tk15. BUT finding a mount is much more difficult than with other switches.

Want Fenix Remote Switch (TK12, TA20, TA21) Discount?

Got this to go with my Fenix TA21 Level 225 Lumen Tactical LED Flashlight.

I wasn't expecting there to be an on / off switch on the tail cap replacement as well as the momentary activation pad.

I'll add a few pics of the cord and light mounted on my M4 real fast for a visual aid.

5/5 Got what I ordered.
