Preferred EDC carry method

Primary carry is a FW1A in a nylon horizontal belt sheath/pouch with a velcro closure. It is made for knives and worn on the left front. It’s very unobtrusive and allows easy access with either hand to remove or replace the light. I’ve been carrying a light that way for over four years. I’ve been through a few different ones. All have been fairly thin lightweight and fold flat without the light in it. For any one inch tube light the sheath needs to be about an inch longer than the light and around 2.75 inches wide. For the last two years my backup edc light has been the Armytek wizard carried either clipped to the left cargo pocket or sometimes the right rear pocket at the very outside edge. It’s head down with the clip flush with the tail and never really gets in the way in either of those pockets. I don’t feel it sitting down driving etc.

Depends on the light. My MH20 stays clipped to the inside of my pocket. SP32Av2 is holstered to my slingbag. If I’m rocking just some fleece jammies, A Light (whichever one might be appropriate) just gets tossed into a pocket.

Hell, if I wanna burn down the AAAs in a penlight trekking down to the basement, that might just get temporarily clipped to my teeshirt collar.

So like everything else, there ain’t Just One Answer.

Same here.

Always an IYP 365 in a shirt pocket, and a 1xAA loose in a pants pocket (currently a much modded old Fenix L1P.)

Other. Back pocket. Like the women use the cell phone.
Only all the way to the right in the right back pocket.
I carry an RovyVon Angel Eyes S300. Which is rectangular.
Can’t feel I have that way.
I use it to spook people mostly. I don’t need any light.
Miami is becoming like Vegas in light pollution.

Cheers.

Probably should have added an option for ENOC. Every Night Out Carry in jacket pocket. ENOCJP,?

Depends on occasion, I generally have a keychain light been rocking the TIKI for a bit and it works well. For a pocket light if its just a regular day etc my trusty BLF A6 with pocket clip fills the EDC roll, if I’m say going to a wedding or a function where I need to be in a suit a Lumintop IYP365 would be the carry for the day.

front right pocket

OCCASIONALLY clipped to belt loop

Clipped inside left front pocket. I'm a righty, buy use my lights left handed.

Front left pocket. I’m a righty too but but front right is reserved for something more tactical.

Same. Knife is in the right. Non dominant hand for the light.

I wear bib overalls year-round. Lumintop EDC18, clipped in left bib chest pocket.

Almost always have a Tip attached by a retractable badge lanyard to a belt loop. Often have a sc31 clipped in the right rear and something else floating around in the right front….just cuz

ht on my neck.
Initially I would use a paracord, but now I use shock cords as these turned out to be more comfortable.

Though for the past 2 weeks I EDC another light as well, clipped to my pocket. I don’t think I’ll resign from a pendant because I don’t always have pockets - but I do like the ease of taking a clipped light out.
I also tend to have a larger light, typically a compact thrower, in my backpack.

I may end up carrying 3 lights regularly…

Oh, good, so I’m not the only weirdo. :laughing:

No… but you are still a weirdo!! :stuck_out_tongue:

At least not for that reason, though.

Keyring. Sometimes need some light when doing a tracheotomy with my Klarus EDC scalpel.

Edit:

I noticed this omission, too. Glad you asked.

I made microcord lanyards for my i3E lights hanging from my keychains… So, I must vote for lanyards! :-)))

I voted for “other”, for the following reasons:

- Keychain: Rovyvon Aurora A8U with split ring

- Wallet (Arc Bolder): Olight i3T EOS clipped to the wallet

  • Pockets (depending on the occasion):
    a) during the day, RovyVon A23 clipped to the side pocket or the “cargo” pocket, on the left side;
    b) at night, when going for a walk with my girlfriend, Olight Warrior Mini, clipped to one of the side pockets, mostly on the right side, next to the knife (left hand is for her :blush: ) ; if not for a walk with her, the light goes on the left too, and the right is for the knife :smiling_imp:
