Before buying, define the usage scenario: everyday carry in the city, travel or protecting premises. That determines the format, weight and battery life of the device.
Format and way of carrying
Compact models are easy to carry in a pocket or bag and quick to reach. The tactical-flashlight format suits trips and evening walks better because it combines light with a sturdy body.
Battery life
A device with a built-in battery should be charged regularly even when unused. Check the charge at least once a month.
Body and grip
Impact-resistant polymer and a textured grip reduce the risk of dropping the device in a stressful situation.
What is in the box
Check for a charging cable, a holster and the documents. The package contents may differ between batches.
Warranty and inspection
Buy where the device is tested before dispatch and warranty support is provided — that is faster than searching for a repair service yourself.
