A general note, some flashlights sold for military and camping use come
with a red filter (often stored in the base.) These lights are designed
to read maps without giving away positions to the enemy (or to
bears???), so this might work well also.
Astronomers use them too. The red filter is used because it doesn't
cause your pupils to adjust to a different level of light, so you aren't
blinded for a few moments when you turn the flashlight off.
