warrior poet "I prefer to hold my good ol' Maglite (which makes a good club if I need it, BTW) at arm's length in my off hand so I can scan the room with a flick of the wrist".
I keep hearing people say they use this technique and yet when I have my wife hold a flashlight as far away and as far out in front of her as she can she glows like a christmas tree.
She says the same when I try it.
