Steer clear of white light while still navigating your observing site safely with this astronomer’s essential, the Night Vision Red Headlamp. Designed specifically to preserve your night vision, and powered by a long-lasting LED, this headlamp provides the perfect amount red-light illumination, ensuring comfortable stargazing sessions where you can see more detail in celestial objects by preserving your dark-adapted vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eUsing the Night Vision Red Headlamp is simple and intuitive.  First, install (2) AAA batteries, and then adjust the headlamp strap for a comfortable and secure fit, so it sits snugly on your head. Next, adjust the lamp’s pointing position up to 45° to direct the light exactly where you need it. Depending on the task at hand, the headlamp is equipped with two red brightness levels, a blinking light, and an SOS setting. You can walk around your observing site, read star charts, or even grab that eyepiece you left in your gear bag, all while preserving your night vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eRigorously tested to ensure reliability and longevity, the Celestron Night Vision Red Headlamp provides up to 100 hours of continuous illumination, when set to the low brightness setting. That means you can rely on your headlamp to accompany you through countless stargazing sessions, camping trips, and outdoor adventures without worrying about running out of power. And if you do run out of juice, simply pop in fresh batteries and keep going—no need to find a power source and wait to recharge via USB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"mso-element: comment-list;\" data-mce-style=\"mso-element: comment-list;\"\u003e\n\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"mso-element: comment;\" data-mce-style=\"mso-element: comment;\"\u003e\n\u003c!-- [if !supportAnnotations]--\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"msocomtxt\" id=\"_com_1\" onmouseout=\"msoCommentHide('_com_1')\" onmouseover=\"msoCommentShow('_anchor_1','_com_1')\" language=\"JavaScript\"\u003e\n\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-comment-author: 'Ron Peters'; mso-comment-providerid: AD; mso-comment-userid: 'S::rpeters\\@celestron\\.com::486ad8f8-3668-4414-b940-ed7083b1ddba';\" data-mce-style=\"mso-comment-author: 'Ron Peters'; mso-comment-providerid: AD; mso-comment-userid: 'S::rpeters\\@celestron\\.com::486ad8f8-3668-4414-b940-ed7083b1ddba';\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportAnnotations]--\u003e\u003ca name=\"_msocom_1\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportAnnotations]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Celestron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46381979500801,"sku":"93581-CGL","price":16.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/6857\/8817\/files\/93581_Night_Vision_Red_Headlamp_01_fcd962c5-0bc3-4a30-af50-b1327c3a194d.jpg?v=1749500852"},{"product_id":"powertank-lithium-lt","title":"PowerTank Lithium LT","description":"\u003cp\u003ePower your telescope anywhere with the PowerTank Lithium LT, our smallest and lightest lithium-ion power pack.
