Explore Scientific’s Astro R-Lite is a rugged red beam flashlight designed to specifically meet the needs of amateur astronomers. This versatile device will allow you to read star charts or make equipment changes without disturbing the crucial adjustments your eyes have made to dark conditions. The Astro R-Lite is the perfect size to be tucked into a pocket and weighs just 2. 7 ounces with the battery installed. It offers a built-in belt/pocket clip and comes with a neck strap for quick access. The Astro R-Lite offers several lighting modes for versatile performance. The orange button on the end turns the flashlight on and off and changes light modes from high to low to a flashing mode that is ideal for signaling. Built to perform in changing conditions, the Astro R-Lite has an aluminum body that can withstand accidental drops, heavy rain, snow and brief water submersions. The Astro R-Lite has a sliding control that quickly changes the beam intensity on the high and low modes to fit rapidly changing lighting needs. The Astro R-Lite has a highly efficient LED bulb capable of providing hours of continuous red light on a single AA battery. Battery not included.

The bright mode isn't as bright as you might want
For the price this is a relatively "good" flashlight. When I turned it on I couldn't find the bright mode, or so I thought. As I cycled through the modes I realized the bright mode was in fact working, just terribly dim compared to my expectations. You might get away with backyard use but I suspect if you were out in the boonies (as might be needed for astronomers when looking for limited light pollution) you might find it minimally effective. BTW, I tried three different sets of batteries and although there was some difference in pereformance, not enough to get excited about.
