[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3393833, member: 5412"] I only have a WML on an AR platform .22 rimfire for armadillo control in the yard. Probably 400 lumens. just enough to see the diller and have a good aim point with the green dot after dark. Read somewhere that a high lumen light was not advantageous because it was too bright in a closed room causing major loss of normal night vision when turned off. Any loss of normal night vision will be caused by any amount of extra light in a dark room as the pupils open and close. I get that. So what is the tactical advantage of a barn burner WML vs one milder like a 400-800 lumen? I can light up a room pretty good with the one I have in some testing. Thinking I need to get a couple of home defense pistols with lights and another AR in centerfire so looking for what is the happy medium and most effective. [/QUOTE]
