I've tried gimmicks like that before and I lost a number of lights and a few line cutters before I got it right.
You know what I found worked better than all of the other crap on the market was something I made myself. It was a wide velcro strap that could be attached to the outside of a BCD or around your leg or arm... whatever you want.... kind of looked like a blood-pressure cuff
I attached the other side of the velco to the light with tie wraps. Slap the light on the velcro and it stuck perfectly. Never lost one.
That said, at the time drysuits didn't normally have pockets and I was experimenting with anything I could think of to streamline my gear.... These days a solution like that would seem very odd indeed.
