I have carried one of these lights almost daily for the past year or so. I have used various methods of carry based on what I was wearing that particular day. Sometimes on my belt, in a light holster, with the clip, in a bag, sometimes in a pocket, vest or jacket... I have not had an issue with the light turning on. It has enough thread on the tailcap to "lock it out" if you need to so that you won't accidentally turn it on. I haven't had to lock it out for my carry but if I threw it in a bag I'd lock it out.

This is a great light for $20-$25. Actually, a few vendors rebrand it with their own label and sell it for 2 to 3 times that amount.

With the increased burntime when using NiMH or lithiums instead of alkalines this light rivals alot of the competition when you compare similar specs. And it does pretty good with generic alkalines too. With normal AA alkalines and rechargeable NiMH it is cheap to use as much as you want.

I wish I had found this light before purchasing a few other expensive lights (and lithium CR123 batteries) it would have saved me many $$$. Besides if it gets lost, stolen or broken it's not a heart breaker.

I've bought 5 of these for me & 1 for the Mrs. for about what I paid for my first "tactical" light and for several reasons I like it better.
