I'm searching for a holster for the above light, does anyone have any suggestions or maybe already have one? Thanks!

The one you see in the link above is my pouch. I can make a pouch for most any light. I do them with either velcro closure or a fstx buckle. I am not familiar with this light but if you have a link and some size specs I am sure we can make a pouch. As always any pouch we do will come with a life time warrantt that you will never use.

Thank You

I am not familiar with these lights. If some one wants a pouch all I need is the sizes. The pouch will look the same and have the same options as all my others it'll just be made for these lights.

Hi John, I will try to give you the measurements on the Maxlite in a few days. BTW, can't wait to get my custom holster for the L2.

Ok I'll give this a try. Maybe someone else can verify measurements.

Pix of light here: https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/127383&page=2&pp=30

Length, front to back (including rubber clickie): 4-3/8" This measurement with tailcap screwed loose enough that light isn't on. Rubber clickie protrudes about 3/16" from tailcap.

Diameter of bezel: 1-1/4"
Circumference of bezel: 4"

Diameter of tailcap: 7/8"
Circumference of tailcap: 3"

Diameter of section of light that protrudes out from light body toward clickie end (what the heck is it called? Thing that gives fingers purchase when holding in "cigar mode"): 1-5/16"?
Circumference of same section: 4"?
--This section is kinda hard for me to measure :sigh: The circumference appears the same as the bezel, but the diameter appears a little less. Anyway, it's close to the same as the bezel.

Hope this helps? Obviously I don't have calipers.

Spordin, yes those measurements are correct, you done a much better job of it than I could have! BTW, I got one of John's holsters today and it is of very high quality and I really like how fast he done it. No one would regret ordering a holster from him!!

I have this worked out now. I dont have the light to take a picture with so there isnt much sense because they look just like my other pouches.

Ordered my custom Maxlite holster from John a few days ago based on my measurements. It got here today. Fits like a glove and seems to be built tough. Excellent work and would recommend his stuff if you need a custom holster. :goodjob:
