I bought a mount that fits into my finder scope dovetail on my ED80. I got it at Sirius Optics for $49.
It includes a screw that engages the switch on the pointer for extended operation. I also protected the pointer body with some small lengths of vinyl tubing, so that the screws that hold it in place don't actually touch it. I did this over the switch as well. I got the idea after seeing what my daughter's fingernails did to one of my old red pointers.
