The LightCap is designed with an integral lever that allows the shooter to flip the LightCap off the light's bezel for rapid deployment of the white light. The included ranger band keeps the LightCap near the bezel when removed, so it can be quickly placed back over the bezel. The LightCap also serves as a safety against negligent light discharges that could reveal the user's position. This is especially important when using night vision and IR laser/illuminators, where an unplanned white light discharge could be catastrophic.
