Hey moBOB.

I dont want to steer this off topic but I use a Nite-ize holder as well.(Ilove the thing) The little pouch at the bottom holds matches and tinder, wire, safety pins,string, small bottle of lighter fluid(etc) as well as a nail wrapped in GUN tape. I chopped down a hacksaw blade and attached a mine string handle which fits down the long back sleeve. If you decide to drop the flashlight a metal cigar tube with a good cap will fit where the flashlight goes in place of a sharpie and can be filled with all sorts of stuff. some tubes are quite strong and resist bending and abuse quite well, not to mention being waterproof. Some of these tubes are quite fat and can even hold a button compass or a mini BIC.
