Throw vs spill when choosing a weapon mounted light

When choosing a weapon light it's not always about the biggest and brightest light you are willing to carry.

Remember that for most people they are only needing to identify an immediate threat INSIDE their property. Always consider your application, need and use case before making a purchase. Think about the "throw" of the light - how far will your potential threat be? Consider the "spill" of the light - how large / broad a light do you need to cast to illuminate your surroundings? And ALWAYS consider reflection - light walls and shiny surfaces will reflect the light right back at you, so as with anything - practice dry! Do dry fire drills in your house to identify obstacles and objects to make yourself aware and keep yourself sharp.
