I read that it is a variable (5.5 to 11.7 mag), cycles over 14.5 months, is an "intensely smokey red colour" when it is dimmest - around one month in the 14.5 months. At that time "it is a candidate for the reddest star which is easily observable". I don't now where it is in its cycle at present, but probably not at its dimmest?
