One of my more enjoyable tasks on second shift (4:00 PM to 12:00 M) is escorting female co-workers to their cars in our parking garage. I originally started doing this on my own, but a recent flurry of parking garage incidents in our area, has caused management to encourage this courtesy in our newsletter.
Our parking garage is dimmly lit, but there is sufficient light to see through un-tinted car windows. Vans and SUVs with tinted side windows, however, are causing me a problem.
LED light seems to be either absorbed or reflected by the window tint and does a poor job of lighting up vehicle interiors. So far, Surefire E2L and Mag 2C LED work best among my LED lights, but are not optimal. My Surefire E20 showed some promise, so I upgraded the bulb to a MNO3, but have not tested this combination.
I'm certain that the Law Enforcement Officers on the forum have far more experience than I do in dealing with this problem. What works best ?
