Why Red-light:

It takes about 20-30 minutes for your eyes to fully dark adapt when doing photography at night. Red light does not mess with that process. Turn on the white light and you have to start dark adapting all over again.

Why Separated button is key?

Below is what Mr.JimDoty says: After leading dozens of night photography field trips, I have decided one of the most frustrating things to have happened is for someone to accidentally turn on white light and ruin the dark adaptation of the whole group. The problem is some headlamps make you cycle through all the white light settings to get to the red LED. That is a terrible design for night photography. So the most essential feature for a night photography headlamp is a separate button to turn the red LED on and off. It is even better if the red LED button is separated from the white LED button.

Red led headlight

This does exactly what I bought if for, and I love the ability to have independent switched for both red and white lights. The red light could be a fraction brighter but is adequate for my needs, and the white light is super bright when on full power, great for the trek out.

Head torch with red light

The MSM head torch with red light for astrophotography is a fantastic piece of kit.
I charged it up with the supplied USB cable, and even though I have used it a lot it has not needed charging again yet. Super powerful white light beam and separate switch for the red light is a very nice touch. The angle of the head torch can be adjusted easily. All in all it has surpassed my expectations. I would recommend this to anyone.

Great headlamp for astro work

I like this headlamp so much I bought two of them! This is a great headlamp for astro work. The red LEDs are perfect for night photography and the white light is powerful enough to guide me out of my locations. I keep one in my camera bag and one in my car,

Great little head torch!

What I love about this product aside from its price, is the fact that it has separate controls for RED and WHITE light - no fiddling around in the dark and inadvertently ending up with a bright white light! Ideal would be to get rid of the flashing option.

Astro Photography - LED Red Head Lamp

Excellent head lamp with separate controls for Red LED's and White LED's that make using the equipment straight forward. Adjustable tilt angle also makes using it easy.

Astrophotography/Red LED Headlamp

These are handy headlamps for astrophotography, as well as for general use. I especially like the separate switches for the red and white lights. Being able to charge via USB eliminates having to buy batteries which is another plus. My only complaint is that when you turn off the light it cycles through different modes including an annoying flashing mode. I would have preferred that it come without the flashing mode. Other than that, a good product at a reasonable price.

Head torch

Until you actually yse one of theses, you may not realize how valuable it is for a nighttime viewing or photography session. It takes me ( I am 72) about 20 min for my eyes to fully adapt to the dark but this red light torch provides plenty of light to keep me from fumbling around in the fark for telescope set up and adjustment. Plus it frees both hands . The band is snug but very comfortable. I can wear it directly on my forehead or over a cap - it is very adjustable. I am extremely pleased with this product!
