What is touch activation?

Touch Activation = Advanced Technology

If you've ever used a smart phone or ATM touch screen, then you already know what touch activation is. Superior to mechanical switches, ArmaLaser believes that one day all advanced firearms accessories will use ArmaLaser-style switching.

Touch Activation vs. Mechanical Switch Activation

Mechanical SwitchTouch Activation
Accidental ActivationVery likely Not likely
ComfortAwkward feel on grip Perfectly natural grip
CompatibilityConditional on shape of hands Works with a wider range of hands
ImmediacyMust reach for or apply pressure Instantly on by normally gripping pistol

Even mechanical switches have problems with heavily padded gloves. Use our new metallic-threaded ultra-thin glove patches to insure activation reliability with all types of gloves.
