Looking good Johnny. Are the bracelet clips from lighthound? If they are, do you like them?

They are and I do except for the price. I can get the same exact ones on ebay much cheaper. I really like the watch band. Extremely comfortable!

Here is a lanyard that doesn't work on all lights, for cosmetic reasons IMO, but is extremely practical. You can use it as a wrist lanyard or on one or two fingers for a secure grip that won't fall out of your hand.
Nice even better.......And some awesome pics as well.
A little copper goodness added .
Some more copper goodness .

Love the copper Jack, but with the price of copper these days, that might doubel the cost of a lanyard?
Ha !
Always good to hear from you Essexman .
Those fittings cost 15 cents apiece .
And I'm looking forward to see the patina ...

Where did you get them, Jack? I went to my local Lowes and found the 1/4" size (the larger of the two you used) at a price of 3 for $1.36 (@ $0.45 a piece) which is still cheaper than most lanyard beads but was unable to find the smaller 1/8" fittings.
I got my fittings at Ace Hardware .
