Abstract
A light comprises: a mode selecting face cap that is rotatable on the light body for selecting operating modes, including OFF. Complementary electrical contacts on the light body and face cap enable operating modes including, e.g., ON and an optional detent retains the face cap in a rotational position for the OFF mode. Alternatively and/or additionally, the light may include a tail cap assembly including a housing shell defining one or more cantilevered supports and a resilient material for sealing the housing shell while leaving the actuators flexibly cantilevered and/or a laser light source having two adjusting screws at an acute angle to each other.
