This night vision light is exactly what I was looking for, for amateur astronomy. The light has a knob on it that allows you to adjust the brightness of the red LED’s….this is very useful because you can adjust the red light as your eyes get more adjusted to the darkness. Lightweight and easy to carry around, I recommend this light to anyone that needs a high quality outdoor night vision light for looking at astronomy books or other such items.
I find this flashlight to be the perfect companion to my night sky viewing. The adjustable intensity allows me to decrease the brightness as my eyes adjust to the darkness. I would have liked the ability to switch between white and red LED’s, as the white light would have been handy setting things up. I used a (2AA) battery mag-light with a red lens before and found it to be too bright.
I recently purchased this flashlight and have been very disappointed. The light from the unit is strong enough for my needs but I’d prefer the small light on my key chain over this product, although Celestron’s unit does have a nice brightness control. Orion’s light may be a little better for my needs because it also has a white light for all other non-stargazing applications. For those of us who haul their telescopes across dark fields in the middle of the night this light will not help get us to our stargazing spot, but it will help when we get there.
This is a very nice red beam flashlight. If I would add anything it should be a little brighter. Well worth the money though.
Hi, I purchased this flashlight based on Celestron being a brand that knows about night time. The light from the two LED’s is very weak. Yes, it is red, but after this light being completely not enough for the work I was doing, I got some red gel and put it over a flash light. THAT was fine.
Too small, underpowered and over priced. Skip this product.
