Do you have to hold down the button to keep the laser on or is it a one press button?

Aloha, Amy, You have to hold the button, but you could easily arrange something with a rubber band if you needed a continuous red dot. I'm guessing that the battery life might be severely limited and the laser might overheat if you kept it on too long. If you need a continuous red laser dot, you might want to experiment with a cheap single function pointer rather than take a chance on hurting this little beauty.

You need to hold the button down. I prefer this to a "double click" approach.

No the one I had the light stays on. Basically the switch is all the way to the back in the off position. You move it forward one notch with your thumb and you have the flashlight. You move it forward two notches with your thumb and you have the flashlight and the tazer if you press another button underneath your first finger.

No, you will still need to push the button with your trigger finger to turn the laser on and off after drawing your gun.

No, you do not have to hold the button down. Press once to start exposure, press again to stop. BTW...Might I suggest the RC-6 rather than the RC-5 remote. The difference is that the RC-5 has only a 2-second delay shutter release, whereas the RC-6 has a switch to change from 2-second to immediate shutter release. A much better choice in my opinion.

Activation for the laser is on both sides. However I've had problems keeping it on the gun even with a recoil reduction spring.

The first press of the button turns on the laser, and you don't have to press the button for more than a moment to turn it on. After about three minutes of being on, the laser starts to pulse to remind you, and it just takes another momentary press to steady the laser for another three minutes.

The self-level still works...the lock function keeps the laser on while you manually turn the entire unit to get the angle you want. When the lock is not on, the laser will go off when the unit is tilted too far.

Yes The R5 has an on-off button. It can turn the laser on with a continuous laser mode or a blinking mode or off. The automatic on mode when drawn from the holdeer is magneticly actuated to turn the laser on when drawn from the holster and off when placed in proximity of the magnet.

You do NOT have to hold the button down for the sprayer to work. However the sprayer is extremely sensitive to pressure and kicks off easily with minor adjustments of the water.

Yes you have to hold the button to keep the light on. Haven't had to replace the batteries yet and I have used it routinely for months.

The button is a "press on, press off" type function. However, if you press part way it will stay on only until it is released. I find it to be a very handy feature.

Simple question from a simple person. Is there suppose to be a push button on the end to turn this laser on and off. The push pad switch has to be held down during use, which I believe is plain crazy. If there is a push button please advise on how to or it. Besides the switch issue this laser one of the best.

Before inserting the pistol into the holster, push the power button on the left side of the laser. Point laser at ground to determine laser is on. Then insert pistol into holster. The laser should switch off when the power button is next to the magnet located inside the holster. When the pistol is drawn the laser should be on. I strongly suggest you turn the laser off using the power button when you do not intend on carrying the pistol. Just remember to turn back on with intended use.

The spray mode stays on until the button is switched back to normal mode. You do not need to hold the button.

Actually no, the laser will only turn on if you press the ON button, so you gotta have the app open.

On the laser there's a button on the back of it. On the flashlight there's a squeeze button

No. You must hold the trigger, it is a safety feature by not having a power-on switch.
