I just received an order from Banggood 2 S2+ (one of them UV), a complete C8, and a C8 shell to build my own thrower.
I got some tailcap magnets. The magnet is loose in one of the C8s and does not shake out but stays behind on the ferromagnetic surface when pulling the light away. I tried a little vinyl tape but it is too thick. I want to be careful to use something that that will not get all over the button cover. Clear nail polish? Locktite? I have some clear locktite for non-porous surfaces like metal to metal. I don't remember the formulation number but it was recommended for preventing rotation of Heim joints used in a suspension instead of rubber bushings. I've also used it on aluminum steering rack and differential spacers that replace bushings.

PS. I was surprised when ordering S2+ lights that I did get the new metal switch. Does anyone know what to look for in an item description to make sure you get the new switch cover style?
