LX2 w/ F04 diffuser, everyday. never intended to when i ordered it but when it came out of the box i knew this was the light for which i'd been waiting. have also used my Quark 123^2 turbo, Fenix LD20 and a couple Rominsen focusables w/ much satisfaction.

I've gone the neck lanyard carry route w/QMiNi AA. Mostly I clip my Quark 2AA or Preon 2AAA in my right front pocket. Sometimes Quark AA rides in a belt holster.

I keep my ITP A3 on a keychain but here is how I EDC my quark mini 123. I took the chain attachment that came with the ITP, removed all the inbetween chain links...and now I have a great belt loop carry that doesnt hang too low. Depending on the location of the belt loop, the light can also hang inside the pocket too. Since I generally wear my shirts oustide of my pants (when not at work), this a the perfect solution for me as the light is concealed. I love being able to disengage the light from the ring, use it, and then snap it back in place when I'm done.

I ALWAY carry bezel down, clipped inside my front left pocket - usually my 85T. If I am wearing a jacket/coat, there is a 2X123 light in my left pocket as well: Jet-III M, 6P, or M2.

The light I EDC has a clip on it, and therefore it gets clipped to my pocket.

Since I don´t like having tools on my belt I usually toss my EDC light into a pocket - jacket or trouser. During winter the EDC can be a bigger light while in summer (no jacket) it is a small light, like a Orb Raw NS or for the comming summer a Quark 123.

I carry my edc in one of those 1xAA Fenix holsters with the D-ring, right on my belt. Since my keys are held together with a carabiner, I'll just clip 'em to the D-ring on the holster.

Quark AA clipped inside jeans pocket. Its actually quite comfortable, I don't notice it 95% of the time.

you don't carry keys?
how about a USB thumb drive necklace? Have an ID card holder? belt?
shoelace?

there should never been an occiasion where you can't find a way to EDC lights. I've looped fauxtons to my glasses frame, pulled my hair foward to that it covers it up, usually most people won't even think to look:D

I carry a surefire 6pl. it really depends on what i'm wearing. Normally at work i'm wearing a shirt that is tucked in so a belt holster. If i'm wearing jacket or sweatshirt its in a pocket. over the summer i'm normally wearing cargo shorts so it goes in one of the cargo pockets. If i'm just wearing jeans and an untucked shirt? i just stuff it in my back pocket.
