Clips – What a mess!

I don't use clips. Who would have guessed. How are you organizing clips that you don't use?

I have a similar stash lol. Why is it so difficult for these companies to design a good clip?

I'm gonna need you to list all of the lights that these clips go with /s

I have a poorly organized bin that all of my light accessories live in. It is a rats nest of clips, o rings, lanyards, and extra tubes. Pure chaos.

That's actually pretty easy. Whenever I add a clip, I write the name of the flashlight with a marker on the inside of the clip. I started this practice after about 20 clips in a box and I had to look at photos online to match them to their lights.

Lanyards are bundled with a large carabiner, I always make my own. Only o-rings are nicely organized alphabetically in labeled zip lock bags. You don't know when you quickly need a fresh new rubber…

You are so much more organized than I will ever be! I also have no intention of ever using the pocket clips on my lights so it's no big deal.

I leave all my O-rings in the sun to bake. My rubber is not to be trusted!
