From the same page you can get the E2 series clip and it will not break.
Is the mounting system compatible? I saw yours with one but you said it was from your prototype light so I assumed not.

Yes. They work.
The tailcaps on the LX2s are starting to fail as well. This flashlight is quickly becoming a lemon.

Shay, do you have a new recommendation over the LX2?
I would not consider anything I've seen from Streamlight or anyone else to be on the same level. I like lights by Elzetta and Inforce on paper, but I'd need to know that they've been through the same things that the LX2 has been through in your courses and performed better in some way.
I also have had replacement tailcaps from Surefire on other lights, and it was just as easy as getting my two LX2 clips before I finally went with an E2 clip. I would happily replace my LX2 tailcap with a more robust (preferably high-output only) cap if it were an option.
Anyway, I've been running the clipdraw since November 2011 without any failure or loss of tension.
Clip draw?
The tailcaps on three of my LX2 lights have failed. Yes, I can order new ones. But that isn't the point. I shouldn't have to. All my other Surefire lights see hard use and have never had tailcap failures.
That's very strange... How did they fail? Just quit working? Come apart?
Is there not a cap like this from SF that is compatible with the LX2?Really, the only dead reliable tailcap switch i have found is the standard surefire single-stage press for momentary, screw for constant on switch
