Does a flashlight make a good defensive weapon? If so, which one and how do you use it in that case? Mike Grant from Covered6 answers all those questions and more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
1) You want at least 150 lumens of light, but 750 is better
2) Keep one on your night table and one in your pocket, purse or briefcase as well
3) Check out dark rooms by standing outside the doorway and slowly looking from corner to corner as you slowly move to the other side of the doorway
4) If you do spot someone, check their hands and waist for weapons, then shine them in their eyes to blind them and run to safety
And remember – confidence comes from being prepared!
