I carry my Surefire6p everywhere even during the day. You never know when you might need a light and it makes a last ditch impact.

I'll carry my E2E when I know I'll be out after dark.

I should carry it during the day too.....I don't though. Go figure.

I also carry a SureFire E2E all the time. It's helped me out more times than I can count!

Do you carry a firearm only when you know you'll need it?

I was carrying in church last weekend. Got a couple of weird looks while I was helping out. Most of the others don't realize that if we lose power, it's pitch black in the sanctuary if the emergency lights don't kick on.

Good point and one I have been asking myself a lot lately about carrying a flashlight. Finally did put a little LED one on my keyring and would like to carry a regular size Surefire, but between the gun and the magazines, I am about out of places to pack it around.
I picked out a C3 Centurion and just have to decide if I can stick it in my pocket and not fall over from all the weight of the stuff I already carry.

Always carry at least two flashlights. I am amazed at how many times I am in a building where the lights go out, decide to look at something under in around or whatever shadows where you can't see, and otherwise wind up in dark places where they are needed. And I always carry two, just in case.

I use my G2 LED at work every day it is a great light. After work i usually carry my E2D clipped to my pocket. It really comes in handy you never know when you will need it.

You might take a look at the SF E2e, L1 and L4. They are a lot smaller than the C3 and a lot skinnier.
