Torch Clip / clamp

[BugOut66]

I'm a torch nut. Love them.

Love knowing I can put my hand on one anywhere around the house or in my car but I'm not happy...

I've been looking for some kind of clip so that I can mount my torches to door frames, walls etc. it seems like a simple enough thing but I can't find anything specific or even anything I could hack together.

needs to be something that the torch could just snap in and out of, like a C shaped clip.

Anyone any solutions?

Check out the home security thread, Maysey (spelling ???) had something to hold torches by his front door I think.

Tool-clips from hardware shops, Wilkos maybe, they are for clipping things like brooms to a wall. They mount with a screw or two and are available in larger-than-broomhandle sizes.

Or, if you is posh, try a gun shop like Brownells, Or AliExpress or Gearbest. Or Uttings, even - anywhere that does tactical type torchy stuff...I believe Mag-lite do their own gucci ones.

Talking of "hack", as per O.P - how about the top end of a small fire extinguisher wall mounting? Get a couple of scrap ones from a caravan breaker, chop in half, bolt/glue/weld top ends together, hey presto, magic plastic coated maglite bracket!

You can even save the lower halves for when you want to mount something, ummm...fatter, on the wall. Maybe an emergency bottle of gin, or similar (?)
