NLD: red
After reading the post from @solrize regarding potential benefits of far-red light on cellular respiration, I bought a Convoy S2+ with the 660nm Luminus SST-20. It’s red. Very red.

That’s a vibe, very spooky
Nice! I tried exposing myelf to my H25LR deep red led. It seemed kind of annoying and maybe not healthy, so I didn’t keep it up for too long.
I remember another time, sitting near a campfire looking at the coals, noticing that my eyes hurt, and feeling an impulse to put on sunglasses even though it was nighttime. My eyes felt a lot better immediately. After a few minutes I happened to touch the sunglass lens with my finger and the lens was hot. So I figured it was thermal infrared bothering my eyes, and the sunglasses stopped it.
@solrize There’s not much heat from the Convoy. I can hold the lens against my skin with it on in the highest mode for many seconds with no discomfort. It pulls about 2A at the tail, so about 8W of electricity, which would definitely result in discomfort at contact distance with a white LED.
I do find pointing it straight into my eyes uncomfortable.
where do I get one of those geese?
