The best self-defense flashlights tend to have a firearm attached to them.

The new UI wurkkos FC12 have 2 selectable group. group 2 is a tactical mode with Turbo as default. Cheers

Newer FC12 has tactical mode, where the tail switch is turbo only (double tap for strobe)

That’s the one thing about some olights the little round button is hard to find. Light or dark I still search for the button.

Mostly want them to be waterproof, rechargeable, and cost effective in that order.

Every home defense gun needs to have a flashlight similar to these on them!

Love the Nextorch UI, gives you instant access to low, high AND strobe from off without relying on mode memory, plus the high/strobe overriding tail switch.

damn, why didn't you release that short before ?! ^^D almost went for a TN12 but I just ordered two FC12 after watching your previous videos. but if I get it right, if you don't set up on specific mode it's ok ? isn't i ? or you can set it up on "defensive" mode, right ?

Nitecore P10iX Tactical Flashlight Floodlight, 4000 Lumen LED USB-C Rechargeable Super Bright Compact with LumenTac OrganizerNitecore P10iX Tactical Flashlight Floodlight, 4000 Lumen LED USB-C Rechargeable Super Bright Compact with LumenTac

Most of the time 300-500 lumens is all you want. Anyone with actual experience clearing buildings will tell you... the majority of walls are white and the majority of falls are because someone blasts a 1000 lumen light at that wall and blinds everyone in the room.

💡You forgot Brightness💥👍👍👍

Nitecore p10i is the one to go. Always opens on turbo 1800lms only 3 levels another button for instant strobe

literally can’t find the one in the middle and the one left side from it 😅

Another reason I love olight the warrior 3 and 3s tail switch can be set up with two different patterns. It’s either medium light or turbo in one setting or turbo and strobe on the other setting!!!

you forgot #3: must have sharp front bezels AKA The DNA scraper

Wurkkos FC12 working with turbo on back button only in ramping mode buddy

My Surefire Flashlight is a real tactical light you wont fumble with it under stress as it only has 1 mode & it's built for using with a firearm. It doesn't make a click sound but u can keep it always on if u twist the rear far enough. Surefire makes real Tactical Flashlights. It's designed for when you are under stress.

I went with some inexpensive single mode 1k lumen lights.

Your not gonna wanna rely on a flashlight for selfdefense period

Your missing the fenix pd35 v3.

And it must have a long shelf life battery that could remain full without charging for months (if not years).

Add in front face on lilighr for smashing. Mando. Thats a close quarters situation. For A far defensive measure you wanna turn invisible. This you need a light that cycles your modes without blowing your cover . No flash on normal use Hold to flash ok End cap button is always a must ❤ Solid intel

Do one on tactical pens!

Agreed. I've been searching for a 14500 EDC that can used for defensive lights.

To bad they're so over priced

No one really seeks out strobe feature anymore over higher lumen output. I enjoy the stream light 1AA as your pick and my EDC. The HL 5X with higher capacity 18650’s for serious output in my vehicle.

Just got the Klarus E3, double tailswitch, turbo and strobe. Very pleased!

Which flashlight did he flash first?

I concur

Wurkkous FC12 activates strobe by half pressing tail cap twice. In any mode. Read the manual first next time.

What's the use on a flashlight in a life or death situation? Are you hoping the attacker has epilepsy? I don't feel like they'd be that effective.

I like my MCH cloud defensive

Been loving my sofirn, tho the warrior mini 3 is so solid for being able to activate all those modes on that tail switch. Sofirn has been so solid for over a year now for more general tasks like fishing etc but yeah that tail switch is a must for defense

Wow great advice. I actually like streamlights for that reason but they are pricey

Nice invicta pro diver ! I got the 18k gold plated one. Love it

So would offensive flashlights be the big heavy ones you could use as a club?

To shoot someone holding a flashlight, look next to them and aim intuitively (with muscle memory instead of using the sights) towards the light. This is especially easy with a strobe light. If you look next to a strobe, you can see what's behind the strobe by ignoring the light and focus on the shape between the flashes.

I don’t know if I agree with the level of necessity. But I do see your point of view! I own none, of these lights by the way. But good video!

This is good video. Clear and simple information, I’m buying a dfl for a family member an almost ordered one that would have been useless in an emergency situation. Luckily I checked out afew youtube reviews first

Dollar for dollar nitecore has the best defensive edc light. P20

Can you recommend a small tactical flashlight with those two features - around the size of a streamlight micro stream?

A must have. Everyone playing DBD knows why

Tactical light must have shortcuts to low, turbo, strobe and one hand operation!

I like my Nitecore TM10K very much, only a couple qualms with it, but the tail button works!

Why the rolex?

My “defensive” flashlight…is attached to a Glock.

What are the scenarios for turbo and strobe?

Too bad I'm relying on it anyway

I would go with an elzetta for a tactical light

*laughs in taser flashlight*

As important is crenelated bezels. Without them, how “defensive” can one be?

Attacker: 😎

I got the Wuben c3

Bro casually flexxing his Rolex in the background

Which do you recommend then?

Wait, why are we relying on a flashlight in a life or death scenario?.....

I really hope you're talking about using this "defensively" while it's attached to a gun... Cause if you're just talking about using a flashlight in a life or death situation then I've got some news for you lmfao

I like ur watch 👈😎

Ur Breitling watch is cool dude👍

The sofirn sc31t is absolutely perfect because the tail cap does NOT activate turbo and you have to actually search for strobe effect. One of the better flashlights imo, because In a self defense scenario a flashlight is one of the last things I would be grabbing.

You said 'It needs to have a tail cap' All flashlights have a tail cap, I think you meant a tail cap switch.

Why not FC12? It has tactical mode (Mode Group 2) where tail switch activates turbo and also in Mode Group 1 you double press and its instant turbo

Strobe is way better in a defense situation

What watch is that?

grown man talking about 'activating turbo mode' like a 10 year old arguing how his favorite comic book character is better than yours.

Well I wouldn't be dumb enough to choose a flashlight in a life or death situation.

Defensive flashlight?😂 I’d rather shoot an intruder than point a flashlight at him!🤔

Well said. It's completely pointless to have a tail switch that doesn't act independently of current set and mode you're in. It's gross to think you could wind up paying a hundred bucks for a decent flashlight but your have to "figure it out" like and old apartment with dual bedroom switches with one wired backwards.
