BashLite Stun Gun Flashlight

The BashLite stun gun flashlight combines a rechargeable direct contact stun gun with a flashlight in one compact aluminum body. It may be a good fit if you want something that has a normal everyday use but also gives you another self-defense option if you need it.

The flashlight can come in handy when walking through a dark parking lot, checking around your car, looking for something in the garage, or dealing with a power outage. That gives the BashLite a practical job even when the stun function is never used.

How Big Is the BashLite Stun Gun Flashlight?

The BashLite measures about 5.82 inches long by 1 inch wide and weighs about 8.8 ounces. The body is made from aircraft aluminum.

That size puts it between a tiny keychain stun gun and a longer stun baton. You still get something you can hold like a flashlight without carrying a long baton.

How Bright Is the Flashlight?

The built in LED flashlight is rated at 120 lumens. It gives you a light source for normal use around your home, vehicle, garage, or other dark areas.

What Is the BashLite Voltage Rating?

This stun gun carries a manufacturer listed rating of 85 million volts. Actual voltage output can be difficult to measure and independently verify, so this number should be understood as the manufacturer’s stated rating rather than a laboratory confirmed measurement.

The manufacturer also lists the electrical output at 4.7 milliamps.

How Does the BashLite Work?

The BashLite is a direct contact stun gun. The front of the unit must make physical contact for the stun function to be used. It does not fire probes from a distance.

An on/off safety switch is built into the unit to help prevent accidental activation. Learn where the controls are and how they work before carrying the BashLite.

How Is the BashLite Powered?

The BashLite uses a rechargeable Ni CD battery. A charging cord is included with the unit.

I am not listing a charging time or battery runtime because I do not have a confirmed number for either one.

What Are the Limits of This Stun Gun?

The BashLite must make direct contact. It does not shoot probes and it does not give you the distance that a probe firing device or pepper spray can provide.

No stun gun can promise how another person will react. Battery charge, clothing, contact placement, and contact time can all affect performance.

What Should You Know Before Carrying It?

Check your current state and local laws before buying, owning, carrying, or using a stun gun. Rules can be different depending on where you live or travel.

Who Might the BashLite Fit?
