I have used these Lighthound boards on several builds and found that on occasion it would not work until I reversed the leads for the switch, not sure why.
I also suspect that micro bridges are forming during the soldering phase.

Just to confirm because I'm not sure if I am able to get light hound on my side of the globe but the flashlight just has to be the type which goes out when released?
Yes, but as stated earlier, you're better of getting a Pololu board.
Also, holy necro batman
When your lightsabers gutter and die in your hands,
your blaster packs run dry of charge,
your words of power dry up in your throat and I am still standing,
what will you do then?
I accidentally bought a momentary switch instead of a latching one. I'm not really interested in spending more or in waiting another few weeks for a latching switch to get shipped to me. For my project I'm not using a sound or control board. It's just a straight circuit. Is there a way to convert the momentary switch to a latching one without the control board? If so, how?
You can hold the button down. Any other solution is going to be more expensive and time consuming than ordering a new switch.
We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.
