Other Lights Around Same Size As TN12

I edc a tn12 with a custom leather belt holster made from a guy in Poland top quality and the holster is amazing. My question are there any lights about the same size that may fit and may be better or brighter than my tn12 I have had it since its release in 2014, i know the nitecore p12 af the pd35 will fit but curious of any others.

For better, I can definitely recommend the Convoy M1. With the red Biscott driveri installed, it’s waaaay more versatile than the TN12, goes for much cheaper than any 18650 Thrunite, you can pick what emitter you want including a flat-dome XP-L HI or a high CRI Nichia. And speaking from personal experience, the TN12’s holster feels like it was made for the M1. As a bonus, the M1 is also more solid than the TN12, both in feel and in actual durability.

It’s not brighter, but it doesn’t have to me

Source: having a TN12 in 1A cool white that I got sick of (that nonexistent High-Turbo gap in particular) and then getting an M1 in 7A warm tint that I can’t get enough of.

Thank you but the convoy is larger than the tn12 and won’t fit in the leather holster.

Another vote for the Convoy M1 ….

I just got one with an XP-L HI 5000K & the Biscotti UI. I am loving It!!

Like was said by Jack Kellar in his post above, it’s a very versatile & very well made light that is priced right. That combination is hard to beat.

EDIT: Ooops, my bad; you posted while I was typing. Sorry about that.

It definitely fits if you put it bezel-up. I’ve been carrying mine like that for months on the daily work commute.

I am not talking about the holster I came with it’s a custom hand made leather holster that only fits that’s slim style light.

I’m guessing that by that you mean it doesn’t have the elastic sides that the nylon holster has? In this case, aye, it won’t fit.

I’m out of ideas. The TN12 is easily one of my longest lights, only competing with the C8, and the latter has a huge head, bigger than the M1’s. The only other tube light I’ve tried with the TN12’s holster is the Convoy S2 (not S2+, mind you), and while it fits laterally, it’s too short for the flap to secure it. Guessing that’s a no-go IYO.

That is correct no elastic. Here is a link to his product I was actually the first to request a holster for the light and worked with him to get it done sent him the light and the quality is great.Leather holster for flashlights Fenix PD35 or PD32 or E21 or Nitecore MH12 | eBay
