'''Flashlights''' are normally used in [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)|Colonial]] and [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] society as a means of lighting dark places. It was developed to replace the candle and the torch as a means of portable light.

Flashlights can also be used as a way to respond to boring conversation.

On [[Ragnar Anchorage]], Commander [[William Adama]] became more than annoyed at [[Leoben Conoy|Leoben Conoy's]] annoyingly hostile anti-human philosophies. Adama became more enraged when Conoy attempted to apply his philosophies directly at Adama by swinging a large steel pipe towards Adama's body.

Disagreeing with Conoy's insightful banter and attempted bludgeoning, Adama illuminated the interior of Conoy's skull with repeated and violent applications of his heavy Colonial-issue lantern flashlight. It is presumed that this particular Conoy model did not have further comment in light of Adama's persuasive responses.

Due to [[Ragnar]]'s EM radiation and the severity of Adama's flashlight application, it is uncertain whether Conoy was able to transmit Adama's dissenting view on humanity back to [[Humanoid Cylon|one of his other copies]]. However, we can assume that he did indeed see a bright white light when he died.

Several fans have waited patiently for the day to come when Adama will once again settle an argument by insightfully going up-side an opponent's head with his flashlight. Lords know he has had [[Galactica vs. Pegasus|plenty]] [[Helena_Cain#Court-martial, standoff|of]] [[Royan Jahee|opportunities]] [[Sesha Abinell|to]] [[Cavil|do]] [[Gaius Baltar#Gaius as President|so]].

Could also be referred to as a "Bashlight".
