    Between my Fenix UC35, PD22 UE, and recently arrived Fenix HP15 UE headlamp with 900 lumens, I no longer have any darkness available at my home.

    Good thing I like to sleep with a night light!

    Thanks again to theledwarehouse for excellent service!

    Looks like Surefire has discontinued the LX2. You can find some online in a few places.

    But I'm curious, what would be the next best thing to a Surefire lx2? Would it be the EB2 backup?

    I've been looking for a dedicated nightstand flashlight. Been carrying a LX2 for four years now so I wanted that for my nightstand too. Was able to pick up a used Surefire LX2 on eBay for $60 It had a broken pocket clip and was missing the lanyard ring, so I need to find away to mount the lanyard. I got the idea from this video.

    I drilled a 3/16th hole through the broken pocket clip. I used a small piece of spring steel from an old windshield wiper to hold the lanyard to the broken clip.













    This is also where you really need a momentary switch flashlight. Last thing you want to do is drop the flashlight and then have it blind
    you.
