I need a flashlight to carry, and I would prefer it to have its own holster on my belt.

What do you carry and how do you like it?

25 Lumens of digital goodness.

I really like it a lot.

Streamlight scorpion, it is small, durable and not overly expensive.

my EDC is a surefire L2.

the 2 stage tailcap is most handy at work and for everything else.
also,it's very kind on batteries(LED).
only drawback is price.

Streamlight STINGER. Tons of holsters for it and it's rechargable. Plus you can put a cone on it for traffic work.

I carry an E2e and my wife carries an E1e. We both keep a G2 in the car for back up and also have a few stashed around the house.

E2e or my E2d, and my GF keeps her E2e close at hand all the time, too. I have many different lights at home (M3, M4, C2, etc.) and a G2 in each vehicle.

Yeah...I believe in lots of light!

Just picked up a Surefire 6p with 120 lumen bulb and reflector housing + leather holster.

It's much brighter than my GIANT maglite in a package 1/16 of the size.

Surefire 6z w/ clicker tailcap in Rosen SOS bezel up.
For bezel down and when I don't have the spare mag I have one of the Wilson Combat light pouches. I also have a horizontal kydex, I believe that it came from Blade Tech.

I am a big Surefire fan.

A2 Aviator is the best flashlight ever! I highly recommend it.

i carry a mini maglite with a terra lux luxeon LED upgrade. i use my flashlight all day at work sometimes and the tactical superbright lights just dont last long enough. i also only stockpile AA batteries so everything i own runs on AA's if it requires batteries.

i carry it along with alot of other crap in my tactical manpurse. which i wear everywhere

i also use one of these headlamps at work alot too.

The E2d is a mean looking little bastard, but I don't care for a thin pocket liner being the only thing that seperates my junk from sharp pointy things.

Surefire Z2 carry on the belt in a holster with a spare magazine. G2 in the Jeep with extra Batts and Bulbs.

E2e and E1e at home, the E2e has the KL1 head unit
