Does it have an on-off switch or do I need to keep the trigger pressed? I need to set it down and work won't be able to hold a trigger. Thx

It has a trigger lock that keeps it on, but honestly to use as a work lamp there are better options available to you, check out Harbor Freight. If you need something to carry on you to use in the fields this is an awsome torch.

Dear Lcrash, no you do not have to keep the trigger pressed it has a trigger lock so you can keep the light on and have both your hands free to do what you need. BEST SPOTLIGHT on the market!!!!! Hope this helps : )

Sometimes the little trigger gets stuck. Look under the handle at the switch and see if you can manually press it in or out.

Yes. Once you start bouncing or shooting it, the ball lights up. It shuts off automatically after it sits for awhile. There is no on / off switch, nor is one needed.

It is just on or off trigger. I do not know of a variable trigger impact. I guess you could play with the air regulator, but can't understand why anyone needs a variable trigger.

I wasn't sure what a locking trigger was, so I looked it up. According to Consumer Repts, a locking trigger means you don't have to hold it down while you operate the trimmer ... which also means if you drop it or put it down while it's on, it will stay on until you turn it off ... could be a safety issue. Mine doesn't have a locking trigger, so it took some getting used to, i.e., if you let up pressure on the trigger even a little bit it's going to shut off.

Not at all! Press side button while pressing trigger--very easy to use--very lightweight. I use it all the time. I'm small 5 foot tall & 59 years old.

Hi, my setup just has a push button switch on the tail/end cap. I cannot recall whether or not there was a pressure pad switch option in the box. The way the push button switch works is one push turns on the laser, the laser stays turned on, then another push turns the laser off. It works pretty good. I know this is not some expensive laser sight but for the money I find it to be very good. As I may have mentioned in my review, at night, wow, that laser is visible at quite a distance, easily 100 yards.

It has two settings, both require you to depress the tip to fire. One will only fire with the trigger being depressed and released, while the other will fire as long as you keep the trigger depressed and it will fire every time you make contact with the tip.

You need to cock the gun each time you want to fire. Also, the safety automatically engages each time, so you also have to press that off.

It will only turn off when the shock piece is turned off. Mine has never gone off when pressed either. In the book it says the on/off button only makes the transmitter beep. Hope it helped you

There is a tiny rubber button on the left side of the laser near the front...difficult IMO to manipulate in a extreme situation...but I get tons more battery life just leaving mine turned off as I do a lot of practice with the built in sites. But push it once and the laser pulses, push button again and it's on constant. Push button a third time and it shuts back off.

There is an exceptional amount of pressure required. You must hold the trigger in with your finger constantly for the machine to work. There is no way to lock it in the on position.

No trigger lock feature, that would defeat the safety intent of the thing only running when you hold the trigger. Not like the old days when they had on-off switches.

Not without taking the grip off. You can disable it from the inside of the grip by taking the one side off. I can loosen my middle finger while aiming and not turn it on untill I fire. But no big off switch on the outside.

The laser has an on/off button on back, you press once for on, twice to off. The flashlight can be held to stay on, or you twist it to keep it on or off. Neither of them have a pressure switch.

Mine came with a Pressure Switch and an End Cap. If you use the End Cap you just turn it until the Laser comes on and unscrew it until the Laser goes off. There is no push button on it. I prefer using the Pressure Switch which is very easy to turn on and off.

You push it on either with your right or left index finger which is a very natural motion. On is all the way to the left or all the way to the right of the switch. Off is the central position of the switch. My holster (contact troutguy1911@gmail.com) easily prevents inadvertent turn on when holstered.
