High-Candela 'Turbo' Lights: A Double-Edged Sword for Law Enforcement
Law-enforcement officers are turning to high-candela, or 'turbo', lsats for their patrols. These powerful torches, while effective, also present unique challenges.
High-candela lsats, measured in candelas (cd), focus their intensity in a narrow beam. This allows them to penetrate tinted car windows, making them popular among law-enforcement personnel. However, this focused beam can create excessive glare, potentially washing out red-dot optic reticles on firearms.
Lumens, on the other hand, measure a light source's total output power, regardless of direction. While they indicate a light's brightness, they don't provide information about its focus or penetration ability. Turbo lsats, with their greater reach, can have higher lumen counts, but it's the candela rating that truly matters for law-enforcement use.
High-candela lsats offer law-enforcement officers a valuable tool for nighttime operations. However, their use requires careful consideration to manage potential glare issues. Understanding the difference between lumens and candelas is crucial for selecting the right lsat for the job.
