Several weeks ago I saw a photo posted in the Knives and Lights thread which was posted by think2x. It was a Peak Eiger with one of Jason's clips for the Eiger. A droplet of water had landed on the clip and I initially thought it was a lanyard hole.
That got me thinking and I e-mailed Jason to ask him if he could customise one of his Ti Eiger clips with a lanyard hole. Several email communications later and we had agreed on two lanyard holes in the clip – one ideally placed for neck lanyard carry of the 2xAA or smaller battery varieties of the Eiger and the other for attachment of a lanyard to a Logan (or Eiger) for pocket carry.
I will let the pictures speak for themselves first…

On a Peak Logan for pocket carry (and could be used with the Eiger)
This has made a good clip even better in my opinion. Previously it was difficult to neck carry a Eiger with a momentary switch. With this lanyard hole at the top of the clip I can carry the Eiger perfectly for neck carry and still have a momentary switch. I absolutely love it – talk about having you cake and eating it.
Thank you to Jason for customising the clip for me. I suspect I will be ordering some more in a few weeks as some more Peak lights arrive!
