Which Cygolite did you buy? Funny thing about the using gloves, any tail light I have ever bought had a difficult time turning on and off with full finger gloves. No headlight though has ever been a problem including the Cygolites; the buttons are larger on head lights then tail lights which must be smaller to fit the smaller package. My little BLT helmet light is difficult to to operate the switch with full finger gloves.
I don't fuss over the small things, to be safe you need to stop your bike anyway to turn on and off a tail light, so you have to remove a glove...how sad.
