Sometimes I feel my e1e isnt as secure when I clip to my pocket, becauase part of it is above pocket instead of all the way down in pocket. I dont use the pocket clip much. It is nice to clip onto random stuff for storing etc though. Like I once cliped mine to the inside of a binder.
I've owned an E1e for several years, but never carried or used it much......until I got a KL1 head for it. I prefer an E2e incan to an E2L, but I've found myself using the E1L quite a bit. Definitely the E1L for me.
