How do you carry you Torch (Flashlight)?

Gareth · **on:** June 11, 2009, 05:33:41 PM

A bit of a standard question this, but I am curious. My main go-to light is a red L0D that I keep on my keyring. The other day I was using it to look under a car and was feeling that the keys were right in the way, so I've put it on a lobster clip so as I can take it off as necessary. In taking it off I realised I had forgotten just how small a AAA light is. Stupid I know.

I also keep a 2AAA mini-maglight in a pen slot in my messenger bag.

So; how do you carry yours?

Normally pocket carry my L1D with my L2D in my rucksack. If i'm doing sound or techie related jobs it's in a holster

Same as you Gareth for the light on my keys, and just pocket whatever else I am carrying.

Same here, such is the benefit of the small size of modern torches.

Just drop it in my pocket (P2D) sometimes it goes in the watch pocket, but I tend to lose things when I put stuff there.

The Infinities are lanyarded and cliped onto a pocket

In the side pocket of my wave sheat, or just loose in the pocket for the LOD-CE. But have a LD10 comming my way

and that goes in my bag.

I'll be waiting

It would be a first if something from the UK arrives in one week. Letters are usually pretty fast but packages.....

It is that water in between I guess

Well, at work my Microstream goes in a pen pocket. At home however the Microstream is in my Left hand pocket and the L1D in my right cargo pocket.

Streamlight Stylus Pro is clipped onto my left pocket. EZ AA is Charge/Wave sheath or on my keys chain.

My L2D is in my man-bag

AAA's are clipped to the shirt pocket . Cr123's are either clipped to the trouser pocket or in a holster .

L2D in its provided pouch, belt looped.

JohnD · **Reply #13 on:** June 28, 2009, 04:05:17 PM

I just came up with a new idea to carry a torch. I have a single length of para cord looped through a small split-ring on my L1D. On the para cord is a cord lock and a cord end. The cord end goes up behind my belt,then the torch just goes into my pocket when i need it i simply give it a tug and it comes free.

Sounds like a good 'un. Pics?

I'll try and get some but i don't have a camera. Or photobucket. I'll try but it could take some time.

No worries mate. If you don't want to host them yourself I'll host them on my photobucket if you want.

I have just made an account and got some pics taken so they should be up soon.

I'm not new to powerfull torches and I've owned 200 plus lumen Surefires in the past but for its size this thing is amazing . I EDC it in the pouch of my lm Wave or my pocket .

AAA torches just get dropped into my trouser pockets. Bigger and its in my coat pocket. I did try keeping a L0D in the fob pocket of my jeans but it was just a tad too long.

Willieboy · **Reply #25 on:** July 03, 2009, 07:56:26 PM

In my pocket, I carry a Ra Clicky. I have a stock Centurion M2 in a pouch on a Maxpedition Fat Boy. A Centurion C2, with Malkoff M60 dropin, rests on my headboard to be used in conjunction with a pistol (God forbid that's ever necessary.) Also on the headboard is a Malkoff MD2 set on the low setting.
