I searched on "novatac minimag", "novatac maglite", "novatac minimag rubber boot thingy" etc, I've read through the many reviews on Novatac and didn't see this referenced yet, so I wanted to share...

I noticed that the bezel diameter on my new Novatac 85T was the same as my trusty Minimag. I pulled out my old rubber lens cover/bezel and a spare lens out of my Maglite graveyard of parts, ran the lens over some 600grit sandpaper and made a diffuser. This of course opens up using the different colored lenses, or just using it as a bezel protector.

Also, putting it over the tailcap allows the tactical model to tailstand.

Thanks for posting. I did the same thing last year. I actually had a couple of these so I trimmed the hole back so it could hold my Fenix diffuser i.e it acts as a coupler between the diffuser and bezel.

The Mini mag lens holder is almost identical to the surefire F04 diffuser. It fits lights with a 1 inch diameter bezel like mini mags, surefire E\L series and novatacs. Good little accessory
