I am starting this thread, so we can bring to LS fans (I am cerainly one), various existing mini flashlight accessories, that work well with the LS. I am an Arc customer, only.
To start, several years ago, I purchased the CC Trek Light. Then I purchased the CC Trek Light Universal Accessory Kit Item #AWK, both from

The URL for the kit is

Of the accesories, 3 of the five are of use to us: Headband, Belt Clip, and Magnetic holder. The headband is by Nite Ize. I have no idea who makes the belt clip. All three work with the LS in AA configuration, though I am wary of using the belt clip in 1AA. The clips hold the light quite tightly.
The headband works very well in both 1AA and 2AA, though I would suggest attaching a split ring and clip to the 1AA tail, a rubber band around the strap, and attach the clip to the rubberband for security. Using the headband, I have no light spilling into my eyes.
The belt clip is a special type that has a fixed-step rotation feature. This allows setting the angle of the light, and it will stay there, so you can use it while on the belt. The hook on the end can be clipped to a belt loop, or you can hang something else from it.
I won't go into the uses of a magnetic holder.
Personally, I rate these accessories as very useful.
Anybody else have some useful accessories???
