Detective Boys Badge Specs
Agasa created these badges for Conan and the rest of the Detective Boys group to use in order to communicate with each other from a distance, much like a set of walkie-talkies. The badges also give out a signal that can be located using the [Criminal Tracking Glasses](/wiki/Criminal_Tracking_Glasses "Criminal Tracking Glasses"). In [Movie 18](/wiki/Dimensional_Sniper "Dimensional Sniper"), it has been modified so that the Detective Boys can communicate at a distance. Also when changing the settings and press the buttons to talk they lit up which they had LED lamps. One can even choose the colour and which badges to light up. Through the badges now produce a mosquito noise.
## Unique uses[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Detective_Boys_Badge&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Unique uses")]
* The badges were sometimes used for critical reasons such as revealing the culprit of a case.
* During [The Desperate Revival](/wiki/The_Desperate_Revival "The Desperate Revival") the Detective Boys throw their badges to the ground while trapped in a cave to startle bats into flying into the men who were chasing them.
* In [Emergency Situation 252](/wiki/Emergency_Situation_252 "Emergency Situation 252") Conan tapped his badge to the floor to direct the other members what to do when Haibara and Conan are kidnapped.
* It was used to locate the culprit in the dark in [Movie 18](/wiki/Movie_18 "Movie 18").
