I just bought a new cannister light and did my first dive with it yesterday. I'm worried that the screw heads (on the hose clamps for the belt loop) will rip or wear on my drysuit sleeve. Does anyone have an idea about a nice clean looking way to cover these clamp screws up? Thanks.

I found that a piece of vinyl tubing covers the whole screw assembly perfectly. Here's a pic for ya.
 
Very quick, thanks! Exactly what I need!

I cut about a three inch long piece of the smallest diameter bicycle tube and put that over the screw. No problem tightening the screw inside the tube and it keeps all the sharp edges covered.
