Liked the old version better as the clip seems to be much more solid... you may have to bend up the tab a little to get to to better secure the light and on the road and off I have never had a problem with my PB lights coming off.
I have 3 PB lights in regular use and multiple mounts on many bikes so I can swap them around as needed.
I used the ratchet feature to try to get the thing properly tensioned, but the lever keeps flipping open on me. Since the light is mounted to a swing grip, there's no shifter/brake mounts to stop the thing from sliding off the end. I've sent another email off to PB advising them of the current situation.
Seems to me, they should include a part that would allow the user to remove the cam/lever mount and replace it with a hex bolt so it can be screwed down tight w/o any risk of lever failure.
