disagree  Curri Barcelo Avila: Una granada de fogueo simplemente explota pero no causa daños (como las pistolas de fogueo). Aquí hay un «flash», que implica que hay luz (las granadas que te ciegan por exceso de luz)

granada aturdidora


Explanation:
También se las conoce como "Stun grenade". Ambas, al activarse, generan un destello (sí, como el flash de una cámara) y, además, un sonido muy agudo, de manera que ciegan y ensordecen al enemigo.
No hay que confundirlas con las granadas cegadoras, que son las que desprenden humo que irrita los ojos.
