I don't think it is so much that flashlights are used often in self defense as much as saying small clubs or batons with lights are used in self defense. The light projection isn't what is working for the self defense aspect.
Black Bear 84 showed the TIDs. In reality, those are just heated ice scrapers that can be used at night where the light lets you see what you are doing and the xenon bulb produces heat to help loosen the ice that is being mechanically attacked by the bezel points.
