| The 5" long Starlite red LED flashlight uses two variable brightness red LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) to help you read star charts and operate your scope without affecting your dark-adapted vision. It has a combination continuously variable rotary brightness control knob and on-off switch. The center detent position turns the light off. Rotating the control knob in either direction turns on the light and controls its brightness. Turned to maximum brightness, the light is bright enough to locate missing items in the grass and take down your telescope after an observing session. Medium brightness levels illuminate a star chart without affecting your dark-adapted vision. Turned nearly all the way down, the light is just bright enough to let you read your watch, the focal length on an eyepiece, or the Wratten number on an eyepiece color filter. The light is powered by a single 9-Volt transistor radio battery (supplied) that will last for dozens of hours (with the exact length of time depending on the brightness level used). When replacing the battery, an alkaline or lithium battery will give the longest life. An 18" long braided cord lanyard is supplied that lets you hang the light close at hand around your neck when it’s not in use.
