Lightbulb Night Light

A red screw cap off a plastic milk bottle makes a very good red light to look at your star charts with when put over the end of your torch. A nice snug fit like a cap on my little 2 by AA torch. A bit of sticky tape will keep it ther also..

Does anyone require a red/green, LED "FLANGED" globe? I make them up. If you want 1 or 2, just let me know. L.
