I used the tact switch. I also used shrink wrap on both ends of the wire to protect and make it a little sturdier. It seemed to really help the end that connects to the switch. To drill out the end cap I wrapped it in a rag and grabbed it with a pair of vice grips. Be careful not to crush it. The pricing was as follows: flash light $19.99 Wallmart, Tact switch (4) pack 3.99 Radio Shack, cell phone charger $7.95 clearance item at Radio Shack, variable solding iron 15-30 watt $10.99 Radio Shack, 5/16 fine thread-24 (4) pack bolts $.68 Lowes As for the 5/16 nut, lock washer, shrink wrap, flat black spray paint, and solder I already had them. Here are a few pics...
