Josh,

Two ways: 1st place the battery tube bezel end down(but with bezel removed)and place a piece of cloth around a flat screwdriver bit under the clip and push/tap down.

2nd way: remove bezel and place paracord or similar under clip and pull! This is my preferred way! Dont forget that a plastic widget lives in the recess of the clip housing and must not be forgotten on reassembly if you dont wish to risk loosing water resistance!

I was removing my clip from my e2e by taking off the bezel and O ring, and tapping the clip with a hammer to get it out. One major warning. DO NOT LOSE THE LITTLE PLASTIC THING that connects the clip to the body!

Oops! Should have said to remove the O ring, good job trailblazer suggested it! (funny how you can forget about O rings!
