I usually carry a single cell, usually 1 RCR123, light, like the Nitecore IFE1 I am carrying today, in my jeans watch pocket....

How about. You?
 
I carry a Nitecore EX10 with pocket clip, clipped inside my left hand pocket. I just picked up a Quark Turbo X, and haven't quite figured out how I am going to carry it yet.
 
I carry a e1b surefire in my shirt pocket and my lx2 or e2dl in my nite ize pouch
 
I wear LA Police Gear's "Operator" pants which have front "suit pockets". I carry a Quark AA Tactical in the front left "suit" pocket and either a QMiniX 123 or a ZL H51Fw in my right front pocket. I also carry a Quark AA^2 Tactical in my EDC trauma kit and Innova Microlight on my keys.
 
My 2-celled primary EDC light (LX2/PT2L) is clipped in my left pocket. My 1-celled backup EDC light (E1B/PT1L/Storm) is clipped in my right pocket.
 
Solarforce L2p, with a Kerberos Triple High-CRI Dropin, in my left pocket with my keys and Leatherman Skeletool. Gets roughed up real quick in there.

Night time carry = E1E clipped to pocket and G3 on V70 holster.

Daytime carry = Surefire C2/G2 in pocket.
 
HDS 200 in left pocket (deep carry no clip)
PD30 or P20C2 MKII holstered on belt left side (weak side)
Fenix E05 XPG on keychain
Benchmade 551 clipped right pocket
Kahr P9 in Safariland paddle holster right side

Thats what I EDC everyday along with my phone inside my carpenters pants pocket and wallet in rear pocket.
 
I usually carry a CR123A or AA light in my right front jeans pocket. Mostly my Clicky 120E, or my SC51w or Quark Mini AA or Mini 123 S2.

I also often carry a AAA light in my jeans watch pocket (either a E05 or iTP A3 EOS upgrade). Then I've also got a Photon MicroLight II and E01 on my keychain.
 
5th pocket - Jeans.... Or sometimes if I'm going 3P sized, I'll clip it to my left front pocket...
 
EDC light usually carried in a shirt pocket -- occasionally in a belt holster.

Spare battery for EDC light in back pants pocket.

A 1xAAA backup light always in the pants watch pocket.
Coin cell light hangs on jacket zipper.
 
HDS Rotary or 4Sevens MiNiX in left front pocket deep carry and a Fenix LD01 or E01 on a keychain - depending on the vehicle that day.

(Along with the lights, I carry a BM Bone Collector 15030 or a SOG Vulcan mini tanto clipped into the right front pocket. I'll carry a Spyderco 3 slip joint if I'm in a suit.)
 
Right Top Pocket (Cargoes) : HDS 140Ex. AW RCR. S/F FO4 Beam Diffuser - Deep carry, Unclipped.

Left Top Pocket, clipped to Inside flap of smaller pocket. Surefire lego: E2E With VME head and Z68 tail. Malkoff M61L. Older body takes a 17670 cell from the head end. Body gray HA. head and tail black HA. I quite like this set-up but this light will change, tomorrow to a Z/L.SC60W. perhaps, clipped or maybe a nice FiveMega 1x18500 with Malkoff's M61W. and AW's 18500 cell. Deep carry, no clip, or maybe...

The HDS is always there but I've never used the clip. :twothumbs These Cargoes have 11 pockets and recently I lost a Quark Ti mini 123 in one of the zippered inside pockets. I could feel it but could not find my way in: It was pretty embarrassing, as I was trying to fish it out to show it to a fellow CPFer. after an appropriate build up. :o
