nighteyes 275 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 When lamping with my mate when we split up its only when he flicks to the white you really notice , from distance it's hardly noticeable when he's scanning with the red on , makes a massive difference 2 Quote Link to post
Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 This is what I'm saying , the "beam colour" is harder in red to see. If your looking straight at the reflector then maybe the red is more noticeable. 1million candle power of red vs 1million of white that's a fair comparison , but 1million candle if white with a dark red filter is totally different. Chid will be right though lol Quote Link to post
