Will people get re-routed to “raylight.cn/” ?

reylighttorch.com or something similar sounds good, an intuitive name. In general, I would avoid anything with dashes, which could invite confusion. And here's why you should NOT use an alternative domain name extension if someone already has .com

Rule #1: Try to avoid registering a .net or .org or any other domain name extension if someone else has already registered the .com version of the domain name you’re looking for. If you were in a room with hundreds of people and asked those people to visit your web site at something.net , I guarantee you that the majority of the people will first go to something.com . The reason for this is that as humans, we’ve all been conditioned or acclimated to go to .coms first. The last thing you want is to register a .net extension and send a lot of your traffic to someone else’s web site that has already registered the .com.
Even Nissan autos doesn't own Nissan.com, but had to use an alternative, which hasn't really hurt them over the years.
