I'd like to see how you guys end up packing your HDS around..
I've seen some very cool arrangements.
Please post your lanyards, clips, things that work for you in everyday use.
For example here's an older Olive Drab 325 XP-L V3 tactical rotary I mucked up, this setup actually works pretty well in the field..
Streamlight 1L/2L clip, 5/8" common o-rings to hold it in place, triple constrictor knot lanyard. A few odds and ends attached.
There's also a 1/8 minus-green Lee filter under the lens and a small o-ring around the raised button to stiffen it.
I'm very surprised how well this light has held up over the years, has been through hell and back..

Rotary 1L/2L clip with Novatac protective caps; the tail cap doesn't stay on well but the front cap keeps any floor damage reduced to a minimum when you drop it.
*****
I finally put the tailcap under the head cap and it works the best. Kind of gives it a bulbous bow look. Super comfortable to hold in hand. Cap stays put. The cap reduces the Outer Spill by about a third. I get about a 6-ft diameter spot beam on a wall from ten feet away. Perfect for a cockpit/ wheelhouse/ inspection or duty light.
Even Hogo would struggle to damage this puppy with his arsenal..
