Brite-Strike Technologies, Inc. (BTSI.PK) develops and manufactures advanced flashlights for use by both everyday citizens and law enforcement officers. The Massachusetts-based company was started by two police officers to create superior LED flashlights to protect common citizens and police officers.
Brite-Strike manufactures its flashlights using only the most current Luxeon LED and EMP chip technologies because older LED flashlights are comparatively inferior, providing less protection to their users. Brite-Strike flashlights produce light that is so bright, clear and flawless it can be used to temporarily blind or disorient an attacker or suspect.
The company’s newest product, the Lighting Strike personal security flashlight, is perfect for civilian use, with women of all ages being the target consumers. The Lighting Strike, which sells for about $80, produces one of the most powerful lights available on the market today, enough to blind a would-be attacker, and features a blunt end that can be used to strike an attacker.
Most Brite-Strike lights can operate on high for up to four hours and low for up to 35 hours. The lights are made from aircraft grade aluminum and feature “fast draw” clips, so users can remove the flashlights from their belts quickly and efficiently.
The two officers who started Brite-Strike have appeared on major news networks such as ABC, CBS and Fox News to promote their products and raise awareness. Earlier this year, the company inked a deal with Lowes Home Improvement to have their lights marketed in Lowes stores across the U.S. Brite-Strike also shipped 4,500 Lighting Strikes to BJ’s Wholesale Club in April 2008 and could receive a follow-up order for 10,000 additional lights.
