Help me Aussie dopers, you're my only hope

Just a quick mundane pointless thing - I’m trying to remember the generic brand-name we used to indicate a large torch when I was a kid - the big square rubberised numbers. It’s not coming to me and I need it for NaNoWriMo dialogue. It’ll probably pop into my mind as soon as I post this but um on the off chance it doesn’t, help me out!

There was the Everready Dolphin.

Sounds like a Dolphin to me too.

I’d go with the Everready Dolphin too. There was that television advertisement that I still remember with the torch bouncing down the stairs in the rain.

Thanks! I knew the Aussie dope contingent wouldn’t let me down! Now to work that into the sentence without it sounding like one of those James Bond moments where he fondles his name-brand weaponry :smiley:

Handy fact: if you’re in need of a lighting rig for a video project, four or five Dolphins taped together provides a surprising amount of light that’s also quite mobile.
