Which flashlight? Help needed...
on: October 15, 2009, 11:58:09 AM
I just got my hands on this little 1xAA flashlight, but I don't know what brand it is..
I'm really happy with it and it fits my Urban Wallet perfect.
I just need a clip, it's 2 cm in diameter, for it now, so does anyone have an idea how & where to get a clip for this thing.?

You can try something like this. Unfortunately this solution implies to drill 2 holes in the light. Another problem, clip is more expensive than the light itself

Thanks for the help guys..  :)
There's actually 2 small holes for the clip, but I don't think I'll get one. I got this flashlight for free and in time I'm getting myself a Gerber Infinity Ultra.
But it works really fine for me atm, 'cause I don't need to send out Batsigns or anything with it...  ;)  :D

The two small holes are typically there to attach a lanyard.

You might be able to get a clip off a magic marker that will fit . A low cost but effective option !

Clip from a minimag should fit well.

Yeah, they're pretty easy to bend to shape if you're a little careful.
