I was so excited to see all those surefires in Get Smart. The one i couldnt get what whatever that maxabeam-looking incan was when they were in the sewer... it had the metal debris guard on it too like the maxabeam has.

I was dubbing a tape of Ghosthunters for my nephews and during 3 hours working and looking at it occasionally t the same time I saw various Maglights ranging from AA Minimags in various colors to a few larger D cell lights.

I also saw an Inova X5, what looked like an X03 (or X02) a Streamlight Stylus Pro, and various unidentifiable ones. One is a small flat rectangular battery housing with a rotating LED head which looked familiar but I cannot place.

Volcano is on Encore right now and i was wondering what lights they use in the tunnel near the beginning of the movie. it was hard to tell.

and later in the movie they have a bunch of Maxabeams it looks like. soooo not fair. :mad:

this has probably be convered before, but i was just watching ghost whisperer, and must say i find it amazing, that brothers on the road looking for gouls, and antique shop people (?) can afford lights that look alot like a surefire M4

also, in slightly older movies, i am amazed by the massive beam of light that comes from a maglite

I recently watched "in the shadow of the moon" and managed to putt up a few screen shots....that flashlight looked out of place since everything that leads to the discussion of Apollo missions dates way back in the 80s:ohgeez:















its not a minimag ;)
but...
I'm not sure what it is :ohgeez:

VERY cool shots! I wish I had a light that just stayed where you put it like that, lol.

It looks like a Streamlight Stinger XT.

I've got the movie at home and know roughly what you're referring to...I originally thought it was the Molle Pentagon light

At least that's what I think Heather Mason is carrying in Silent Hill 3 the game.
