Hi Joreen,

Sorry, I should have posted the information along with my post. The light is made by Rayovac and is their Sportsman Series "3-in-1 head-lite."  It uses 4 AAA batteries and has three light selections, two LED (flood light) selections (one red and the other a blue/white light) and a long range quartz spot light.  I rarely if ever use the spot light selection, however the LED beams will last a few nights without changing batteries. Since the light is made for a head and not a helmet, so you will need to secure the strap in a couple of places to keeping from moving.

I somehow missed the earlier post with reference to the red light on the helmet. What brand is that helmet light that has the option of red or white light? Do you have a web site link you can share?

I agree, by design alone light sticks (glow sticks) were made to provide a passive light source.  A couple of weeks ago I posted response to the light sticks. I had said that I use a multi-beam helmet light that has a red LED flood light and also can be switched over to a bright (white) spot light.  I only use the spot light when a stronger light source is needed.
