What is Flashlight?
You bring a flashlight into the round. It is not a floodlight and it does not run on the house breaker. The charge meter sits just above the hotbar. There is no published drain rate, so the bar is the only warning. In a blackout the beam is modest. Players with it lit have still said they cannot see the room and have to follow walls. Teammates use the beam to find each other, and the creature can see it too.

How do you get Flashlight?
Already carried at the start of a run. It is not a world pickup.
How do you use Flashlight?
Equip a battery when the prompt says to. When the light dies, grab the next battery, equip it, and wait for the beam to come back. Turn the flashlight off when the creature might be close. The tutorial states that it can see the beam. Turn it on only when you need to cross a dark room. Do not treat the beam as the Locust lit-area rule.
