PentagonLight tail caps - where to find?

[mmike87]

As I understand it, PentagonLight is defunct. I have a UL200 weaponlight that I am quite happy with, but wanted to try a pushbutton tailcap instead of the remote pressure pad. I don't like the idea of the wire hanging around to get snagged on something.

Anyone have an idea where there may be some Pantagon tail caps left? I read somewhere that some SureFire tailcaps work on pentagon lights ... but I have no confirmation of that.

Thanks for any info.

A friend of mine had a PentagonLight weapon light. His clickie tail cap gave up the ghost. We tried to use a Surefire tailcap in its place and it did not work. I don't have the Pentagon product here in front of me so I can't say for sure but it seems they use different contacts at the tail cap to complete the circuit. I could be wrong, but having had both products in my hands and having at least a rudimentary knowledge of lights (and how they work), I don't see how a Surefire tail cap could be made to work on his particular model of the PentagonLight.

Thanks. I was pretty skeptical about the SF light working. Not sure what the heck to do now. Sucks they got shut down.
