Not trying to bash you. But you lost the element of surprise by turning on the light. And never open the door. Otherwise you did good.
Had a coworker that answered the door late one night. When he turned on the front light and looked through peephole, he was shot 3 times through the door. He lived fortunately. Turned out to be case of mistaken identity.
Just so you know, I made the same mistake as you did 25 years ago. And the guy was a drunk.
