Quality Duty Lights
Tactical Interface
A duty light is an essential piece of equipment for law enforcement and security professionals and should always include a handful of features to ensure it will be effective. Probably the most important quality in any duty light is a tactical interface and functionality. A light that uses a tailcap switch allows for one-handed operation, which grants your other hand the freedom to hold your firearm, radio, etc. Momentary activation gives your duty light the ability to emit brief controlled bursts of light for quickly scanning an area or perhaps even as a signal. Having a high-frequency strobe is essential as it is an excellent tool to disorient an attacker or target from a distance, making it an excellent deterrent and self-defense tool. A crenulated bezel can also be an effective self-defense tool and can be used to break glass in the event of an emergency. Having all of these features is not necessarily essential, but each makes your torch a more effective duty light.
Easy To Carry
Another essential characteristic of any good duty light is portability. A duty light is a tool you will be continuously carrying on your person and it is imperative that it does not weigh you down or detract from your overall movement. Compact designs are highly favorable for law enforcement and security, who may be on the move for hours at a time and may need the use of their light at any moment. A light measuring roughly 6 inches long and weighing around 8 ounces is small enough to be easily carried without sacrificing power. While this may be our optimal size for a duty light, don't let it stop you from buying a slightly larger model if you feel comfortable carrying it. Additional accessories like pocket clips and holsters are also ideal, giving you the freedom to carry your light on your hip or vest and keeping your hands free for other tasks.
