A device that, when triggered, emitted a bright, momentary burst of light was known as a flash charge. This made it effective for disorienting adversaries who were employing scoped weaponry. In 9 ABY, Din Djarin and Toro Calican deployed flash charges on Tatooine as an aid in the apprehension of Fennec Shand. Subsequently, after Calican's betrayal and the hostage situation involving Grogu, the Mandalorian employed a flash charge to divert Calican's attention.
