Can anyone tell me what this torch is that the character Sergeant Doakes is using to search an apartment in Dexter, 25 seconds in:

Is it some kind of infrared torch? I thought they were only useful if you had night vision goggles but Doakes isn't wearing any. Is the idea that it illuminates things but doesn't give away where you are? Doakes is supposed to be ex-special forces so he would have this sort of equipment.

It looks like a red LED light, since you can see the light.

If they were using an expensive light, then it could be the red mode of a Kroma.

When I watched I blurted Kroma. I'm not aware of any other colored LED lights with multiple LEDs and a larger bezel like that. If there are then it's just a guess.
