I have a bad knee, so I cannot run away in a confrontation. I want to carry a "bright" flashlight for defensive purposes. My question... assuming roughly the same carry size dimensions, what would be the best type of flashlight to carry, that is, which would deter an attacker best... (hypothetically) a 6000 lumen flashlight with 40,000 cd or a 2000 lumen flashlight with 70,000 cd? Am I wrong in thinking the 2000 lumen flashlight would be better? To me, it would seem that the light being directed to the assailant's eyes would be "brighter" (more intense) than the 6000 lumen flashlight. Am I wrong in thinking this? Other than the need to direct what I assume is a narrower beam of light from the 2000 lumen flashlight more accurately, am I missing anything else?
