Flashlights in TV shows and movies (Part 3)

[Monocrom]

It also seemed like he stopped to get the batteries out, got interrupted by Mr. Jason before he could change them, ran off and magically had a functioning M4 again anyway But perhaps I wasn't paying attention

Like any good flashaholic, he was carrying spares and swapped them out off camera.

Man, we're one sick group . Aside from flashlights, I also notice knives and watches and only when I'm NOT watching movies with my ladyfriend do I get to take screenshots of the movie. Anyway, I'm sure many of these movies have been covered, but hey, I got screenshots!!!

Note, I may not know all the flashlights, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

24 - Season 1 -
Found a Blooper - Between 7:00pm - 8:00pm, Jack Bauer had a SureFire M4 ... after commercial break, he was carrying an M6. Only Jack Bauer has the ability to be in the middle of nowhere and convert an M4 to M6 within a commercial break

Here's an image of the SureFire M4


Immediately after commercial break he's holding an M6


Here's a beamshot of the M6


=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
24 - Season 2 -
I think he's carrying a Streamlight Scorpion throughout this season.

Here's a shot of it


Close up shots

24 - Season 4 -

Seems like Jack Bauer is using a Laser Devices Operator OP-6 flashlight for this season.

A Surefire G2 ish looking Flashlight on the foreground


For the rest of the season, it seems like Bauer is using the Laser Devices OP-6






=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
24 - Season 5 -
Look like Bauer is back to using the Streamlight Scorpion


=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
Resident Evil 2 -

Surefire M6



Surefire M2




Nothing like a beautiful women, wearing skimpy outfits to fight zombies



=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
When a Stranger Calls

Hmmm ... I wonder how many non-flashaholics would have a Surefire M6 by the door.



=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
CSI Las Vegas

I see many Streamlight Scorpions, Surefire M4 and M6s in this awesome TV series.

Bones

Brennan mainly uses Surefires


Here's Brennan holding an M6





Booth, on the other hand, uses a Gladius







But Booth gave his Gladius away to a homeless guy. Hmmm ... unless the homeless guy has a lot of CR123a, it'll be nothing more than a fancy paper weight.

Ron Hood's Urbanmaster - Home Away From Home

Not a movie, but Ron Hood, a well known outdoorsman was talking about the flashlight to carry when you're away from home. He mentioned his favorite, which is the HDS EDC Ultimate 60 XR

Surefire M4

1st pic:

I'd recognize the inside of that lit up bezel anywhere. It's a C-series Surefire. Just not sure which exact model though.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2nd pic:

If that's an M4, some evil bastard hacked off half the barrel and put a rubber sleeve on it. Or it could just be a Streamlight Scorpion.

Lol. Yup, it is a Streamlight Scorpion. It's hard to check your writing while inserting photos.

Damn! You guys are really sick!!

Clearly he is a well prepared man and has more than one flashlight upon his person at all times, during the commercial break he obviously holstered the M4 and equipped the M6 instead.

Remember 2 is 1 and 1 is none.

[tebore]

Just watched Rambo(2008) again the other night and I noticed that Surefire sure provided those Thai soldiers a lot of lights for their weapons. I saw an M6 hand held and an M4 mounted on a weapon.

[aussiebob]

Great selection of sreenshots there.

We've covered Resident Evil 2 before in this very long thread.
I even posted photos showing that light to be an M2...
I can't find my hosted photo but you can see it here:

Ohhh ... very nice. Now I could fill in my description. This thread is waaaaay to long to go through.

[Illum]

is that a premier light in the foreground?

[xcel730]

I'm not sure what it is actually.

[AubreyCTTX]

Anybody catch battlestar Galactica last night?

Anyone see the first (smaller) light that the Chief was using to inspect the cracks with Adama?

Sorry no screen cap

I don't know what it was, but here are some screen caps. There was never a good, clear look at the whole light.

First, a look at the beam:


Second, as he drops the light we can see that is a bit ringy up close:


Here is Chief Tirol holding the light with the tail cap in his right hand, head in left hand.


In this one he has flipped the light around.


Here are some views of the head and tail:


After this he starts tapping the light against his hand, which while it exposes more of the light, makes getting a good shot more difficult. However, I did manage to catch a couple of potentially useful frames.

Anybody notice the non-Surefire in Size 15's signature block?

[276]

Thats PK's Rogue Icon 2

No need to take this thread off-topic. Discussion of my signature can be done elsewhere please.

Awesome pics! I went back and forth in slo-mo with a VHS tape! Looks to be a Wolf Eyes light, not sure which one:

From the pictures, I'd guess it's the Wolf Eyes 2A. That's based on my eyeball-approximation of the length of the main body.

To get those screen captures I pulled the show from my Tivo HD to my PC using Tivo Desktop and then used a program called SnagIt to capture the exact region of the screen I wanted.

Oooo..... I think I found it!

Looks like a Wolf-Eyes Eagle 3AX

I was flipping through the channels last night and stopped on "Star Trek Enterprise." They were using what appeared to be M4's with foam handles.

[Lee1959]

Was watching an old episode of Bones and Zach was using a black Inova Tiros X0 in the lab.

[MSaxatilus]

Guys,

I was watching a television show on the National Geographic Channel called "Hitler's Underground City" recently. The guys from the Berlin Underground had these really cool rectangular floodlights. The light looked to be about 10-12 inches long and rectangular. They appeared to house a total of 9 LEDs arranged in a square shape at the front of the light. A handle was evident at the top and the entire light seemed to be under some sort of regulation as there was a red glowing LED (battery level indicator?) on the top.

Did anyone else catch the show and have any idea what light they could have been using.

I'm going to do a bit of research on the internet now, but initial searches were futile.

Anyway, any input would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like the 5.11 from http://www.511tactical.com/lightforlife.html

[parnass]

An Energizer Hard Case spotlight was used to hunt for a dead cat rotting underneath a dental office in tonight's episode of The Exterminators.

[MSaxatilus]

No, not at all.

It looked more like half of a shoe box with a carry handle on top and LEDs on the end of the box. The housing was aluminum colored (bare?) with a glass or plexiglass square window in which the LEDs were aligned like this

I can't seem to find anything even close to this description... the search continues.

I watched the same show a couple of nights ago. Cool looking lights. Those anti aircraft towers were crazy. Eight foot thick walls and eleven foot thick roof. For some reason I keep thinking the light body was blue and white.

[MSaxatilus]

For some reason I keep thinking the light body was blue and white.

Hmmm..... I was really thinking silverish, but could have been blue or white. They also seemed to have four bolts or reddish circular objects on the side, and a square label on the rear of the light.

....at least someone else saw the show.

Yeah those towers were crazy by the way.

[TooSharp]

I'm trying to think of the name of that group that was doing the mapping of the Berlin underground. You might try doing some searching on the group and stumble across a blog or forum where you could ask about the lights.

[MSaxatilus]

I'm trying to think of the name of that group that was doing the mapping of the Berlin underground.

"Berlin Underground Association" I'm pretty sure was their name.
