If your experience is more recent, that could explain the difference in potency.

BTW, your blog is high-speed. Keep it up.
If you trained with them, that would likely explain the shorter recovery time.

A flashbang have 3 effect :
  • Vision trouble, which dissipate in a shorter time than the other effects, and much faster if you averted your eyes - which you would with training.
  • Hearing trouble, which can last minutes to hours, but impair action less.
    And if you trained with flashbang, you likely have permanent ear damage/ hearing loss, which further mitigate the effect.
  • Dizziness, which is the primary "stunning" factor, and also have a wide range of recovery time, but which can be (partially at least) overcome with training.

Location would also count a lot, I think.
There should be a huge difference between a flashbang detonating a few meter above a crowd in the outside, or a more powerful one point blank inside a room.
