Tried it in my two fish but it is a little wobbly and so will be using a couple of hose clamps opposing each other which works really well I find and is cheap. Keeps the light on the bike just in case loose finger Louie happens by also, unless he has a screwdriver.
You're welcome, no problem.
That said, forget the hose clamps, check this out

I've currently got a hacked bike light clamp & a zip tie holding my TF on todays ride, but am using that design to hold my mini-mag along with the TF, and 1/2 that design as a camera mount. Also using that design to hold the TF on my road bike, and will be replacing the cheesy bike light mount on the bike I took today w/ one of those as soon as I get another clamp.
