      I’ve seen Direct D shine this back at cops when they point their flashlights at his cameras. They aren’t supposed to do it, it’s called prior restraint. This flashlight is the perfect response.

      My opinion is that LEP lights are going to be brighter than anything LED very soon. Right now they’re on basically the first generation of LEP chips, but in a couple of years when engineers figure out the spot/flood distribution for LEP lenses combined with the natural efficiency and brightness gains that come with maturing light technologies…

      Now, we just need to make it a rule that all flashlights need potting so they can survive being used in the real world.
