Flashlights in TV shows and movies (Part 4)

[Hoodzy]

They used the fenix pd35

Anyone know what flashlights they used in the scorch trials? I want to buy one of those, so if anyone knows tell me

Hi,

I am trying to locate this particular Flashlight.

It was used in the 2010 HellBoy Movie.

Can anyone help ? I suspect it's very discontinued now

Unfortunately this is the best image I could get.

I appreciate your help, folks

From the movie "Prisoners" (2013) starring Hugh Jackman:

Detective (Jake Gyllenhaal) was using a flashlight, if my memory is correct, I think it was a SF E-series light (?).

Does anyone else find it a little embarrasing that the characters in a film like Alien: Covenant, set 87 years in the future, are using a huge 7 LED flashlight that's clearly putting out no more light than a well amped single XML-2 light from today?

 

[Hugh Johnson]

By that point they might invent modes. He could be running it on low.

How about the New star trek series trailer, i saw a 4 emitters flashlight.

A few days ago I noticed a "surefire e2d" standing on a small table in an episode of "the shield"

I think I saw Jon Snow using a torch in several episodes of Game of Thrones... Not sure what the make or model was though...

A while back I sold one of my NIB Maglites from 1990 to a Prop master working on AMC's Halt and Catch Fire. Well the episode finally aired! Here's a few pics of the 5D Maglite:

I also did a full write up on the scene on my blog at: http://maglitehistory.blogspot.com/2017/09/amc-tv-halt-and-catch-fire-5d-light.html

Question. On the TV show "Kindred Spirits", I see the 2 host using, large, camping (?)
style lights. They look a lot like those lights on wires from the 60s or 70s. Party style
lights? Any how, any one have any idea who makes or sells this light? I'm lost on this
one...

I have been trying to catch up on the CW world of DC Superheroes (I have scores of episodes to catch up to present episodes!) and was watching 'SUPERGIRL' Series 1, Episode 8 'Bizzarro' and I spotted this:

Being used as a Sci-Fi remote control doohickey. To trigger the flow of a black liquid giving Supergirl's double life and consciousness.

No Light was emitted, but lots of dramatic music!

I'm sure this was the Chinese 18650 knock off of the 'Gatling-Gun' light that was around several years ago. I used to have one, but gave it away. It had a white light in a few modes out the front, and some flashy multi-coloured 5mm led on the rings.

Anyone remember who manufactured it? Or indeed the name of the expensive light it was based on???

See this for some history re the GatLight.

I remember following that thread with great anticipation of the intricate details of such an innovative and cool looking light at the time. No way in the world I could afford one back then but it sure was neat to watch the development.

I watched catacombs 2007 and the girl used a very massive and bright flashlight. Anyone know what it is?

 

[Toohotruk]

Surefire Beast. :naughty:

 

[cp2315]

You are right Toohotruk. It was dropped in the movie >20 feet to solid ground and did not even blink.

Thank you sir.

Ah yes, the Gatlight. I did see one in the flesh once at a meet. It was broken and didn't function, I think the cap was cross-threaded and un-removable. Bit of a let down, actually.

In the movie, "Right at your door" they used a Surefire M6 (LED).

Does anyone know what helmet lights are used on 911 on Fox?
