The [[flashlight]] has a limited battery replenished by picking up [[Ting]]s, and it can be turned off at will. Should it run out of power, the Ting Finder 9000's pointer and flashlight won't work anymore, leaving [[Rayman]] in total darkness while displaying a text telling him there's no more power. | The [[flashlight]] has a limited battery replenished by picking up [[Ting]]s, and it can be turned off at will.

The Ting Finder 9000 also stores the [[power-up]]s picked up by [[Rayman]] and is required to activate them, also displaying their remaining usage time. It can thus grant [[Rayman]] various temporary benefits, such as unlimited endurance, highlighting [[Ting]]s or [[Noseless Rayman]]'s position through every surface, or upgrading the [[flashlight]] to illuminate most of the surrounding area. | The Ting Finder 9000 also stores the [[power-up]]s picked up by [[Rayman]] and is required to activate them, also displaying their remaining usage time.

Oddly, [[Rayman]] can still use the Ting Finder 9000's [[flashlight]] feature when he has the [[shotgun]] in his hands, although it may be an oversight. | |||
[[Globox]] also owns a Ting Finder as revealed in the game's introduction, as he took his own to go collect [[Ting]]s in [[Noseless Rayman]]'s mansion. He's also seen holding a Ting Finder 9000 in the ending, being either his own or the one [[Rayman]] brought and replaced with the [[shotgun]]. | [[Globox]] also owns a Ting Finder as revealed in the game's introduction, as he took his own to go collect [[Ting]]s in [[Noseless Rayman]]'s mansion.

* In ''[[Return to The Spooky Raymansion]]'''s early development, [[Rayman]] carried a simple [[flashlight]] instead, and the [[power-up]] icons were to be restricted to a corner of the game's user interface. Somehow, the remaining battery icon was displayed on top of the [[flashlight]], glowing as it does on the Ting Finder 9000. | |||
