I won't buy a headlamp with a red light, because I always end up turning the useless red light on accidentally.

I like a headlight sometimes, they get annoying after a while

Works on earthworms too if you are out at night and getting bait smile

However, deer also have very good hearing. If you're making extra noise because you can't see with red or green, that'll spook them more than a white light.
