I know it's been about 2.5 years since the last post, but I noticed I never thanked wjv and tjswarbrick. So, thank you both for your suggestions. And thanks to the other people who commented as well.
I ended up going with a non-qtc Peak El Capitan and I epoxied a clip to it. Here's a little...
Well, since this thread is still open, I'll post a follow-up. I went ahead and bought this clip:

I used a rotary tool to remove some of the knurling from the El Cap to accommodate the part of the clip that connects the "band" to the "arm". The...
Hi All. Thanks to everyone who commented on this thread.
I ended up buying a non-QTC Peak El Capitan and fitting it with a pocket clip for Fenix AAA lights. Here's a link to a little description of what I did: link
On Peak's website, both the Logan CR123 and Logan 17500 have a listed barrel diameter of 0.78 inches. So the ZL clip should fit the same on both.
Has anyone found a good clip for the El Capitan? According to Peak, the barrel diameter is 0.738 inches (about 1mm less than the Logan).
Also, has...
Thanks for your reply, archimdedes. Indeed, it seems that Prometheus Lights still has Eiger clips (and Preon clips) which might work. I did find a forum post on edcforums which claims that the Eiger clip will fit the El Cap ( link ). I'm considering that route but also wondering if there is...
Hi All,
I'm looking for a light that is...
- Very tough, reliable, long-lasting, and water resistant
- Runs on 1 or 2 AA cells
- Has a pocket clip or can be easily fitted with one
In terms of features, I'm not looking for modes or output regulation. My thinking is that simpler is tougher. I...
Hi everybody,
I'm thinking about buying a Non-QTC El Capitan from Peak and attaching a pocket clip to it. One thought I had is to buy a slide-on clip and epoxy it to the body. Has anyone attempted such a thing? Can anyone recommend a clip that would fit well on the El Cap? Peak's website says...
Stonepark,
I wasn't able to find an Olight i2s for sale. I found an Olight i1, Olight i2, and an Olight i3s, but they all seemed to have multiple output levels. I am looking for a single-mode, unregulated output light. None the less, thank you for the suggestion.
AnthonyMcEwen,
My reason for...
Thank you for your suggestion, Norm. That looks like a good option for me. The description of the light on em-mgt.com says that it is a high power light. This makes me wonder: How much runtime should I expect? Is there another similar light with better runtime? Also, this light barely squeaks in...
Dear readers,
I am seeking some advice on buying a flashlight. Here is a list of characteristics I am looking for:
1. Single mode. No adjustable output. No computer-regulated output.
2. Runs on one or two AA batteries.
3. Any output level. Low or medium preferred. [EDIT:11/19/2013]
4. Decent...
