I just wanted to let all of you know about a product that came to my attention recently. I have one, and it works great!

So what is it, where do you get it, and how much? ???

Right. It's the Safariland RLS (Rapid Light System). You can get just the mount and it's about $30. It will fit any 1" light. You can find the mount plus light online for around $85. I really like the light because it has a 65 Lumen LED that uses 3 AAA batteries (in a cool little holder). The run time is 50 hours instead of the normal 10 or 12 with a 123 battery LED.

My carry holster doesn't accommodate a mounted light. I can carry this one on my belt, and because it's a regular 1" light, I can use it for regular flashlight needs. I don't have to carry a flashlight and a weapons-mounted light. Then, when you need it, it's on your rail in less than a second. It's so easy, you wonder why it took people this long to figure it out.

Anyway, I didn't remember seeing it in any discussion on this forum before. I just wanted to bring it to everyone's attention.

where is the best place to get it?

It sounds like a great way to mount my Fenix P3D which is a great light I just hope this mount will work

Here is a link to the Fenix light which is by for the best light I have owned for the money

I don't think it will work with that light. I checked the diameter for the Felix, and it's 2.1cm or about .83". That means that it would be too small to fit in the mount. The mount is made for a 1" light (.970" to 1.060").

You might be able to rig something up, but I'm not sure.

And that looked like a great piece of equipment to
