A Strobe Switch in Luigi's Mansion 3

Strobe Switches[1] are small green switches that appear in the Luigi's Mansion series, debuting in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon . As their name implies, they can be activated using the Strobulb. Strobe Switches are often found on doors and coffers, requiring the use of the Strobulb to open them. E-Gates in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and treasure chests in Luigi's Mansion 3 also contain Strobe Switches.
