I'm looking for a AAA with a secure pocket clip for EDC. The Olight i3s is almost perfect, except the clip looks like it comes off pretty easily (it doesn't wrap all the way around). Any recommendations?
The pocket clip on the Olight i3S is secure. It is the triangle link for the keychain that is weak and subject to failure.
The Streamlight Stylus Pro clip fits perfectly on the Peak Eigers. Very secure and it doesn't interfere or obstruct the momentary switch. You can get the Streamlight clip as a spare part.
The Dereelight DA3 is an interesting AAA light and has a very strong clip.
The i3s is really secure - I've been carrying it daily, CLIPPeD, since April 11th, when I bought it. It takes some effort to remove it, won't come off easily.

Fenix LD01. The clip is the clip-on removable type but it never came off accidentally for me. It would depend how you use: if you want to be 100% sure it won't come off, then you should look for a model where the clip is kept in place by either screws or a retaining ring. I don't think I have a seen a 1xAAA model with that kind of clip though. Check out FourSevens and Thrunite: these are two brands that come to mind with models that have clips secured in one way or another - not sure if for 1AAA lights too.
