Immediate Access to All Force Options
The reasons are several, simple and significant. The TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System is the ONLY weapon an officer can take to a car stop, a street interview or any situation wherein a threat is not readily apparent. Think about it. He cannot approach every car with his gun, stun device or pepper spray can in his hand pointing at the occupants ready to fire. He won't walk up to every subject that may merit an interview with a weapon drawn from his holster ready to fire....unless he is carrying a TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System flashlight in his hand. Then, and ONLY then, he can approach any vehicle, anytime, day or night, or any person on the street, and he can do it with a non-lethal weapon in his hand, in position, ready to fire in a split second should things suddenly go bad. The subject doesn't even know the officer has a weapon in his hand, so he doesn't panic and do something stupid, escalating the situation. No officer should encumber his off-gun hand with a flashlight when he can carry a TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System, The "Best Rechargeable Flashlight" in the world, the ONLY tool that provides the simultaneous, synergistic application of lethal and non-lethal force. No other tool does it. Not one.
TIGERLIGHT™ from an aggressor's perspective.
Split Second Deployment - Invisible To Subject
Imagine an officer interviewing a subject in a street level encounter. The officer has the flashlight on the subject and the extremely bright light causes the subject’s night vision to be significantly impaired. The officer can see that the subject is becoming increasingly hostile. The subject says or does something that causes the officer to have to escalate force. In that split second, the light is rotated downward, moving the light’s beam from the suspect’s line of sight. The suspect loses his night vision and tries to focus on the officer. Suddenly the suspect is hit in the eyes by a blinding blast of pepper spray and the officer has moved from the last place the suspect saw him.
Optimal Design For One-Handed Operation
The TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System is designed for one handed operation. Unique design features reduce the end weight of the flashlight. This provides for better axial balance making one-handed operation more comfortable. We recommend that Officers use the "Harries" method when using the TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System in conjunction with a firearm. This method is preferred because it affords the user the ability to quickly transition from illuminating the suspect to spraying the suspect with pepper spray, while maintaining cover with his firearm. You may prefer other methods. Regardless, this advantage is significant.
Concealed Pepper Spray Reduces The Likelihood A Situation Will Escalate Due To A Visible Threat
The fact that the pepper spray is concealed within the flashlight allows the officer to have the pepper spray in his or her hand without the suspect or onlookers even knowing that the officer already has a higher force option at the ready.
Designed For Combat Environments With O Rings, Gold Plated Contacts and Hard Coated Surface
The TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System meets military specifications for water resistance. It has an impact damper to protect internal components. The internal contacts are gold plated to eliminate corrosion to insure that the TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System will function reliably in harsh environments. The hard coated exterior of the TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System is tougher than any other flashlight in its class.
The TIGERLIGHT® Is Shorter, Lighter And Brighter Than Any Flashlight In Its Class
At less than 1.5 lbs. in weight, 11 inches in length and with extremely bright illumination, the TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System has many tactical and practical advantages over flashlights previously used by officers and military personnel.
Reduced Liability and Increased Safety
Arming officers with a TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System will reduce police liability. The fact that the TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System allows an officer to have pepper spray ready to deploy, provides for efficient force transitions. The ability to move from one level of force to another seamlessly and instantaneously will reduce the likelihood that an officer will need to jump to heavy force in order to head off aggression. As stated by Morton Feldman, Vice President of the National Association of Chiefs of Police, "An officer may only have a second to decide whether to go for the mace or the gun, and if he makes the wrong decision, it may be his funeral." The TigerLight® Non-Lethal Defense System should be the only option for those who desire to increase officer and civilian safety. Any other choice is comparatively dangerous. |
