ABSTRACT:
A flashlight includes a tailcap switch and a flexible boot made of an elastomeric material covering the tailcap switch and providing a water-resistant and contaminant-resistant shield around the switch. The flexible boot preferably includes a substantially cylindrical bellows section and a flat exterior end surface with at least one substantially straight edge on the circumference of the end surface that reduces any tendency of the flashlight to roll when laid on its side.
