Spill

Home / glossary / Spill

Spill refers to the part of a beam of light which surrounds the “hotspot.” A floodlight will often produce a beam which is mostly spill, and very little (if any) hotspot.

The Sig Sauer FOXTROT2R has a definitive hotspot (the brightest point in the center), surrounded by a usable amount of spill.
The TLR-7 Sub has a lot of spill, with a less noticeable hotspot.

Cole is a design engineer at Werkz LLC but has been involved with the family business in various capacities since its inception. He designed the Origin series of holsters in 2022, bringing a new level of concealability and comfort to outside-the-waistband holsters. Unhappy with the compromises of multi-fit holsters from the competition, Cole later introduced the Outlier series, allowing those running unique pistols to carry comfortably, inside or outside the waistband, without compromising safety or retention.

Cole holds a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Culture from New Saint Andrews College.
