Does anyone else on here carry a nitecore p25 size flashlight with them? If not what's the biggest you carry?

My EDC for years has always been a 1X AA of one model or another.

During the day I carry a SF 6P with a Nailbender dropin
at night it gets switched out for a 9P with a moddoo triple.


This is in addition to my SWM V10R and Muyshondt Aeon

It's about the same dimensions as the 4Sevens Maelstrom X7 which I used to carry. I prefer to pocket carry and the X7 was just a little too large for me to do so comfortably on an every day basis. In a holster it was just fine.

Now a Surefire C2 is about the largest I carry on a routine basis. Just like StriderSMF, I carry mine clipped inside my front left pocket.

I regularly carry the Nitecore P25, Eagletac G25C2 Mk II with flip-up diffuser, and the Klarus RS11 (though not all at the same time :D). Have EDCed the Nitecore TM26 a few times, but not part of my regular rotation (overkill for daily needs). If you have a good holster, the size isn't really much of an issue. In fact, the only light I have that I haven't ever EDCed is my Fenix TK75.

If I know for sure I'm going to be out in the dark and will need a light, I'll carry something larger than your typical EDC format light. As far as a light in my pocket or on a neck lanyard, no bigger than 120mm length and 25 mm head. My V10 or V11R with AA extender are always on me.

Eagletac D25A2 Clicky is the biggest I would comfortably pocket carry, regular days biggest is any single AA or single CR123 size lights. I have a sx25a6 in my bag.

Biggest is pretty much a 1xAA size or 1x18350 size (such as the Jetbeam RRT-01). I personally find 1x18650 lights too big for EDC.

I edc a pd32ue, but not any bit larger. Its as long and thick as my pocket will allow for allday comfortable carry.

My biggest EDC light is a tie between my ZL SC60 and SF E1B. I dislike having things on my belt, and anything bigger than ~4.5"x1" get's annoying for pocket carry.

I usually have a 9P or C3 with me, often both, plus a 6P. I also keep a SF E2 (though it isn't very big) in a holster on my backpack, just in case I get caught out without any of the three lights mentioned above. None of the above are typically carried in pockets.

Most days, I clip a Malkoff MD2 bezel down into a front pocket comfortably. Occasionally I'll replace it with a Surefire C2, or VME-d E2L the few times I need to go smaller.

I carry my nitecore p25 on my jeans hip when I need it, mainly for the early hours of the morning till the sun rises.
I don't wear a belt so I use the clip and fix it to my work pants. Works fine for me as an EDC. And it's USB rechargeable which is convenient.

My EDC is a Fenix E01 in Purple. It rides on a 'biner with my keys and my Spyderco Ladybug3 in ZDP. If I'm going out at night or in the late afternoon I generally take my Surefire E1B along with me, too.
