I got an HDS Rotary 200 lumen light and an OR Universal pocket clip to go with it. I read some of the other posts about modifying an OR clip which seemed to be the best option for the HDS lights.
Here is a pictorial view of my positive experience with the mod. I used a dremel and some patience, which netted me a satisfactory result. It did not come out perfect, but I am happy with it. Functionally, it works great! I also think that the OR clip is aesthetically very pleasing.
Just take your time and test fit often and you will have no trouble at all.
Tools of the trade.
Starting inside diameter.
Outside diameter.
Testing for fit. It needs a bit more...
Final size
Final size measured 90* out.
The finished results. You can see that the clip is not perfectly centered. I might be able to adjust it a bit, but I think I am going to leave well enough alone. You have to try your best to grind symmetrically, but doing it by hand and eyeballing it is not a perfect method.
