How does the clamp on the 500L work? One of the best things about my Dinotte lights is how easy they are to put on and take off, even with gloves. Is it just as easy with the 500L?

The other two lights that really impressed me were the Princeton Tec Switchback 2 and the BR Lights C2. How quick and easy are the mounts on those lights to use? Is the BR C2 really going to be secure with that mount? It looks like a good bump could knock it out of position.
Hey Ken,

The BR Lights C2 is, in fact, very secure. They've positioned the mount so that it takes a bit of effort to knock it out of adjustment.

The Princeton Tec and the 500L both use (though not identical) a clamp that allows the light head to be slid off easily, even with gloves. I did miss the o-ring system of the smaller DiNotte's though.

I was able to attach and remove all the lights you listed with gloves.
