Re: Aiming lamps

Mike,
There is no way to measure in the field. I checked the optical wattmeter prices and they were relatively expensive (>$1000). In general if the flashlight were sold as a self defense weapon, it is intended to temporarily blind some one. That alone triggers R9. I am sorry I can't give you any better direction than this at this point. I recommend that your inspectors ask to see the light turned on during inspection while it is aimed at some non-reflecting surface and away from human vision to evaluate the output.
