Patent attributes
A switch for a light may comprise: an electrical switch on a reference plane and actuatable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the reference plane; a switch actuator including a flexible boot disposed at an acute angle relative to the reference plane including: a plunger adjacent the electrical switch movable substantially perpendicular to the reference plane for actuating and de-actuating the electrical switch; and an actuator member between the flexible boot and the plunger movable to move the plunger toward the electrical switch when the flexible boot is pressed. The electrical switch is actuated when the flexible boot is pressed toward the reference plane or parallel to the reference plane or at an angle therebetween. The switch may be adjacent a reference plane surface in a light body of the light.
