Back in the early 90s I was in some CQB/MP/HQ protection etc reservist exercise (no, I didn't serve in US military, different country, different military...) and our MP instructor told us that (in guard duty)if you ever need to physically negotiate with a customer,ALWAYS use the standard issue aluminum Maglight, NOT the baton you also have on your belt. Because it looks so much better on a report,"the subject refused to comply and tried to attack, had to hit him with my FLASHLIGHT". Not baton, flashlight. And then the powers to be reading the report think about some small flimsy plastic flashlight they have at home and don't ask any more questions about the encounter...

I agree with you that I definitely see LEP surpassing LED for flashlights. Some car companies are already using LEP tech in new headlights as well. The overwhelming brightness of the beam is definitely far ahead of LED's in general.

If you're talking to car people, which i do a lot being into cars. I call lumens horsepower, and i call candela torque. Even non car people really kinda get this analogy. It's like speed vs power. If they don't get that explain that a photon is a physical think, like a rock. And then i explain it's like having a very small rock that you can throw very easy, and it goes pretty fast but when it hits the window, it won't break it. But if you throw a big rock, it'll smash through it even if you throw it just as hard as the light rock. It's destructive power, in the form of light. It's the difference in a small guy punching you 5 times and a big guy punching you once. Most normal non gun guy people get those comparisons.

High candela = more light in an area but those high powered lights made it more difficult to see you, let a lone what you were holding. (because of the light reflecting back, it washed out any detail, with the camera at least) The LED lights we had as work/back up lights on our trucks were lower candela (don't know the rating) but a flood type they worked really well, when it was all the way dark, but did little at twilight/overcast times. (because they lack the candela) I figure it's because they weren't focused as much we could see better, because they didn't blind us with too much light.(unless you look right into it but......) So I guess what I'm getting at is high candela lights are great to blind someone to give yourself an edge or the distance you need but a softer light like the small Streamlights are pretty great so you can still see everything well (details) as a utility light. Thanks for shedding a light on the subject to clear up any misconceptions about lights. I had a tuff time telling you from the mannequin with those hot lights. Had to be the camera that made everything wash out.

Those lights look much better in person. I own multiple high candela lights (one is 125,000 candela and 2000 lumens). To the human eye, its not too bright. In fact I now hate all my low candela lights now because they dont let me see details. My TLR1 HL has been retired now that I have a Surefire X300 Turbo. Its like going from a AA maglite to a modern LED. Controlling the target is way easier too because they cant see anything and it physically hurts to look at the high candela lights.

Unless you have a power source that’s protected it’s pretty moot. Also, you can place lights in a faraday cage. To be honest, I think my on-gun weapon lights would probably survive since most of them are actually in a faraday cage (gun safe). It is good to have a backup plan; but I would not deny myself the advantages of modern tech because of a single low probability scenario.
@sarys73
@sarys73 Год назад
Incandescent are needed for the cheap 6ft 3 way lamps you get at Walmart and Target. The newer lights blow out really fast or will only work half the time. I couldn't find out why I had so many problems with long lasting bulbs and any newer bunk. Then I read the manual, and it says must use incandescent. Another reason for the old school one are that new bulbs can interfere with garage door remotes. They interrupt the range. If this ever happens to you, where you can only open your garage door in your drive way, but not 50-100 ft down the road, then use an incandescent bulb, and it wall solve the problem.

I like to think of it as Streamlight being a really good EDC/patrol or police lights, they’re good value good quality but not bombproof which is fine for an officer or edc carrier if it gets broken or goes down it’s a lot easier to replace being in country whereas I think of Surefire as a bombproof military light that’s built to just a little higher standard than Streamlight, you can feel it when you press the switch on a tlr1 vs an x300 or open the battery doors and look at the wiring and thickness of the bezel which would be good for a soldier who can’t source flashlights as easily potentially, BUT they are exxxxxxxpensive. 330$ typically online and that’s a lot for most people to spend on a weapon light unless they’re really into guns and stuff or prepping for shtf or whatever lol. Plus before the turbo series hit it seemed like their quality assurance was slippin although I will say that has seemed to have been fixed since turbo series hit plus they are crazy hot lights 100k candela is crazy. Modlite cloud and mall off ect is boutique shit if you ask me they’re all good I have em all besides cloud but they’ve been vetted if you’re willing to spend even a little bit more but really not getting performance over turbo surefire. They all have their place I don’t take sides they all look cool on certain guns so no wrong answer. Besides olight….. or anything cheaper than olight. That’s the thing about lights you have 4-6 companies now to choose from everything else blows so you can’t go wrong with the big 4-6 Streamlight, surefire, cloud, malkoff, modlite, sometimes inforce

I dont know if this is just because its on camera and being viewed through my monitor, but once you got to the much higher candela lights it actually made it harder to make out the gun (or pretty much anything at all). It washed out pretty much any detail, it just looked like you were glowing.

That's a camera issue, the human eye works much differently

I have one of the LEP heads from Atibal Illumination, I had to sign a Class 3 laser waiver to get the head. I can hit street signs across the valley from me. I need to find one of those diffusers so I can use it on my HD rifle.

For home defense: High lumen with some spill. For GPR without night vision high candela less spill more throw. For GPR with night vision: Doesn't really matter, but high lumens is more important as it is primarily for indoor use.

High candela is good for more than just throw and distance. It's not quite that simple.

The way I see it is that if you are just using it at the range or maybe for hunting or stuff like that, more candela is a good thing. If you're built a SHTF gun, I'd rather have more lumens and flood because if S did HTF, you wouldn't wanna be using your white light outdoors anyway. That's just a good way to give away your position. They would and should only be used indoors so more lumens and a wider beam would be better for a SHTF gun, at least in my opinion.

They have been changing all of the streetlights to LED and the road just doesn't look the same at night. I always see them go out more than the old ones did, or they flash on and off which is annoying.

Thanks. I listen to Mas Ayoob and as an expert witness at court cases he suggests to have an EDC flashlight that is not attached in case the person you find who is not an attacker somehow feels assaulted by the attached gun light. So I've been looking for a hand held light that I can use, and maybe a separate one that I can attach it to the 1913 rail on my pistol if needed.

My lil 1L-1AA Streamlight ProTac works great just for that. That plus AA batteries can be found everywhere and are pretty cheap.

Curious why you say that you can't show lights on rifles when videos older and younger than yours show plenty of rifles, in action, with lights on them. Then you also have Garad Thumb. But in your opinion, what would you say is the ideal range for the use of lights? I personally think that if you are using an LED in something outside of an urban environment specifically clearing buildings, a light is more likely to get you killed than to help you.

I So I have to ask, and forgive me, I read a lot of the comments but not all. If you had to pick one, which is it? I honestly saw no difference when you went from fire arm to cellphone with any lights. At least not enough to tell what was in your hand. . If you really want to help, what would you stay away from? What is in your opinion the best lumen/candela combo?
