Found a few with >3000 lumens but reviews were questionable. Looks like some come with a front ring that can be used to inflict damage or to break glass. What do yall use?
Mostly looking to use for dual hunting and to visually disable assailants if needed

Interested as well, especially if rechargeable.

I recommend Surefire or Streamlight.

I've used Fenix since the late 2000s. Either as a EDC and a light-mounted AR

I have several Surefire G2X lights. They are indestructible and affordable.

I bought two Fenix PD35s during one of the infamous Academy discounts pre COVID. They are awesome.

Streamlight Protac HL USB. Don't get hung up on lumens, pretty much everyone grossly overrates their lights based on what the LED COB can output under labratory conditions abd not what it will do in a flashlight. My EDC light is a Streamlight Wedge or a mini Protac. I have a Fenix PD35 too and it's a great light but really prefer USB-chargeable lights with only one or two brightness modes.

I have the Protac 2.0 with pressure pad right now. Light is great. Pressure pad has been finicky lately and kind of upsets me. Less than a year old. I like the 2.0 because it comes with the dual end cap that I can still manually turn it on, but I have it mounted on the opposite side of the barrel, so not optimal. I may look into Fenix before dropping Surefire/Modlite/Cloud Defense money.

I used to buy nothing but Streamlight, until I found out about Fenix.
