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. That snap-on is the confirmation the swap worked. Turn the flashlight off when he might be close. The tutorial states that he can see it. Groups tell each other to kill the beams at the start of pressure. Turn it on only when you need to cross a dark room.
