“Your spouse definitely won’t wake up in a panic thinking you’ll murder them with a chainsaw.”

I got hit with a police spotlight 300000 candlepower and it was painful to the eyes. They focus infrared as well as light. If you just want to set something on fire a tungston bulb is as efficient as an LED.
“tactical”…technically, shock and awe IS a tactic lol…
