NO WAY...a cannister light worn on the right side of a DIR harness is tucked
in so close you don't even know it's there.  It has NO way of catching mono,
works totally flooded and as Cobber said can be ditched if you need to drop
lead.  All I do is wrecks, and I would never put a metal to metal conection in
a difficult location at my left back. 

 Explore better alternatives...just becuase you have done something a 100
times and had no problems, does not mean it is the best way to go about it!  I
have an AUL Spec 100 and would not dive w/o it know!  Even for my recreational
dives I wear it.
