How do you EDC?

Candle Power Forums

Help Support Candle Power:

Leatherman wave, and either my pd35 or my recently acquired s10r baton 2, and a Taurus pt140 millennium g2 .40.
 
New to the forum, definitely not new to EDC. I typically wear blue jeans. I carry my Eagletac D25a Ti clipped in my left front pocket and my knife, usually a CRK 21 or Spyderco PM2 in my right front.
 
A small light in the "watch" pocket and Photons on my key ring. At work I carry the Zebralight SC5w in a small belt sheath instead of pocketing an EDC. If I carry a Malkoff MD2 it is clipped in my pocket or I may use a belt sheath.
 
I've been carrying my Thrunite Archer 1Av2 clipped to my pocket. I like that I don't have to go fishing for it in a pocket. Clip seems to hold fine, and I like it so far.
 
Zebralight SC52(Clipped in left front pocket), Benchmade 580S Barrage(clipped in right front pocket), Nitecore 2017 TIP(inside right front pocket), iPhone 8 Plus 256mb(right back pocket), Beats X White Bluetooth Headphones(hanging around neck), High Intensity Whistle(inside right front pocket), Wallet(left back pocket), Key FOB(inside right front pocket), Apple Watch 2nd gen(left wrist), MS Surface Pro 2017(REI shoulder sling bag)

Depends what I am doing.

Off duty:

Streamlight Protac 2AAA, clipped into my front pocket. Its plenty lumens to light up a yard, room, or vehicle repair. There was talk I saw that the clip makes the light stick up out of the pocket. True, it does, so I moved the clip (see photos).

*edit...apparently I can't post photos??

There is always a solarforce with spare batteries in my truck.

There is also a Streamlight Protac 1AAA in my coats.

If course I have my knife and concealed firearm.


On duty:

Solarforce L2 on my duty belt. Just got an updated LED drop-in, XM-L2 U3. Great light!!

Streamlight Protac 2AA in my trouser "sap" pocket.

Streamlight Stinger HL in the Tahoe in my patrol bag. Another insanely bright light. Also have the good ol' SL20X in the charger mounted on the center console.

Streamlight TLR1 on my firearm.

Am I pretty well covered? :naughty:

Right pocket with clip, Usually a Zebralight sc64. Olight on keychain.
 
Belt holster all day everyday sometimes an additional smaller one In my front pocket the actual light will vary, depending on my mood.
 
Right now my Okluma Dc1 gets either clipped to my pocket or in my pocket standing next to my wallet.

I am deciding between Hogo holster and a skinth pocket sheath. Im not sure if I want it on my belt or in my pocket. I will probably end up with both.

Pants pocket carry since mid-016.

Any other lights are passengers in a jacket/vest pocket or an occasional clip'd on number.

When working at night a helmet mounted number goes where I go.
 
Zebralight SC64w - loose in right front pocket with my keys, a couple pens, a victorinox mini knife, and a handful of kleenix.
 
I carry a D25C using the clip, on my left front pocket, and I keep a Lumintop Tool Ti in my front right small pocket of my jeans. Also a Fenix UC02 on my keychain
 
I carry my Fenix PD35 clipped in my front left pocket and attached by the lanyard to a dog-clip on my belt loop. I can drop it when I need to draw my pistol and still have it handy.
 
Maratac AAA nichia in front pocket 24x7, HDS light in belt holster when outside at night.
