cloudsweeper Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Should work! I use red cellophane or acetate sheet - experiment with how many layers you need to tape on. The red part of cinema 3D glasses works as well. Doug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT65CB-SWL Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 @Googinhiem Do you live in GB/UK? [not sure where you are by your coordinates if that is yours in the 'Location:' box]. You can buy rear bicycle lights at places like .99p Stores, PoundLand,... etc. Wishing you clear skies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave In Vermont Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 My guess is that his name is his/her zip-code for mailing letters, etc: Kaukauna, Wisconsin If this is correct, Sir, my I suggest AgenaAstro in California? Good gear for astronomy at the going prices - and free shipping. That last one is a BIG plus! Here's a page from their online catalog on lighting: http://agenaastro.com/parts-accessories/lights-laser-pointers.html And here's the front page itself: http://agenaastro.com/ Enjoy!
