I do actually have several led panel floodlights set up with remote controls to throw light on my livestock when the dog warns me of some threat. I guess I need to add more; they can all be programmed to the same remote if that becomes necessary.
They work pretty well and the cost isn't prohibitive, but they do run on 120v. Not that they can't be run from an independent battery/inverter or from my house battery backup/inverter as long as that system remains functional.
The problem I have with white light is once that second of advantage is past, I'm left with it's effects on my own natural night vision and I lose some of the advantage of knowing my place in the dark, but especially if the attacker is using thermal, white light might be my best bet.
Like many others, this is really a subject I know little about...
If you’re behind the light and the attacker isn’t, you have the advantage without needing NOD.
