I just made a hands free light mount using advice from this and other boards.
Here is a picture using the light converted to dive use I detailed in an earlier post.
It's made from a 3" diameter (4" lengh) piece of PVC pipe called a junction I believe. I cut it lengthwise and then cut one of those lengthwise again.
I shaped it to fit the back of my hand, drilled 4 holes for 1/4" bungee to use as the hand loops and I drilled 4 more holes for 1/8" bungee to mount the light. I cut a piece of scrap neoprene to use as a light cushion and threaded that with the 1/8" bungee mounting the light.
I put the PVC in the oven at 350 degrees for a minutes, took it out and flattening it and then put it in cold water. It takes just a little of the curve out but still leaves enough to fit your hand.
I also found a way to give a bit more support to the Oxycheq Sock Sock using the other smaller piece of PVC left over from this project. You fit it to the underside of the Soft Sock with the curve facing up and drill two holes in the end near the grommets in the SS that the bungee comes though.
Just use that bungee to thread the piece of PVC. Now when you put you hand in the SS the top of your hand pushes the PVC up and you have a harder surface to support the light so it's not all fabric. Spray it with a little matte black paint and it blends in.
