I'll add a note to this: The LED bluish-white flashlights seem to reflect the smoke a lot better than traditional bulb flashlights (you'll notice this when a nice big luxury SUV with HID lights is tailing you and you stomp on the gas  ). Therefore if you do this test, I recommend using an LED flashlight if you've got one, but either would do.
