Secret hint for the red and white Energise ones.

Remove two of the batteries and replace with flat ones. The white light is then much dimmer and when you accidently flick the switch the wrong way or push too hard when turning the red off, it is not likely to cause fellow astronomer to string you up by your EQ mount. Yet doing this, the red light is still way bright enough to work with, even for months after.
