J-Lo is correct. It would not be too practical to have a remote switch for that. It does have a push button switch on the back of it. I used a scope ring and rail system to mount it to the helmet. I also have it so it can tilt the light up or down 15 degrees if needed.
Ok, cool. It was just a thought, because it would look cool if it came on 'automatically' without you touching your bucket, but endcap switch it cool too.

Do you guys remember those TV commercials for like the super ear or whatever...a little directional mic with an earpiece?
If I recall correctly the mic and switch was one unit, and the earpiece was another. I think something like that would be perfect for a mando armor. Put the mic in one gauntlet, just make a hole for the toggle button, then put the earpiece in the foam for your helmet.
You have a directional mic in one gauntlet, and a mini led flashlight like that in the other. Or maybe a green laser pointer, for "painting" targets
In this kit I have the flashlight on the side of the helmet with a push button on the back of it. I have one switch for the fans and another one for the EL wire. I also have a wireless headset with the transmitter inside the helmet and the receiver is in one ammo pouch and the actual amp/speaker is in another pouch (it is a 10W amp) I also have a wire ran down inside my flight suit arm and inside my glove with a push to talk button. So, when I want to talk I just push the button in my glove. It is a great set up and work very well.
Dude that is tech!
I was considering a wireless setup like that for radios, but having a speaker for your speach is even cooler. Does that work with the voice amp or is it one or the other?
It works with the voice amp. The set up goes like this. Wireless head set > headset transmiter > heatset receiver > 10W voice amp/speaker. It is VERY loud too. I spoke to a Gymnasium full of kids with it last week and they all could hear me.
