    @thepriceisright, what color would you go with? You can't use red or green. IMO, blue looks good and it isn't super bright. I changed all of my lights to blue because the white was too harsh at night. I also have a blue boat, so it all ties together.

    In the marine industry, don't most, if not all, helm stations utilize red lights due to the long wavelength which results in less stress on the human eye?

    Blue light can also trigger aggression in some. Serious.

    Price :  Never heard such, But thank you eye doc, was not aware, interesting. 
    May we call call you lightfesser. 
    1) Humans can't focus on many wavelengths of blue light. The way it scatters in our cornea means the focal point occurs slightly beyond our retina, making it look blurry. As we constantly attempt to focus, it can lead to eye strain, which can cause headaches, nausea, and even long term vision impairments.

    if you want to keep your night vision, go with amber. If you just need illumination, white is the way to go. 

    I know, super boring.

    I don't get why everyone goes with blue light. Allow me to nerd out here for a sec...

    Mine can go white, blue, red or purple.  The cool part is that it works with a normal on-off switch.  They come on white.  Then flip the switch quickly off and on and they cycle to the next color.  So I can have color based on mood.  :)

    Blue light can also trigger aggression in some and its very harmful for our health
    The amount of blue light being radiated from the screens is more and it leads to a reduction in the contrast sensitivity of the eyes causing eye strain- as said in this article- https://eyemantra.in/about-eye/blue-light-effects/

    The whole reason for me choosing blue was 1) i thought it looked cool 2) it is one of two colors that doens't totally ruin your night vision.  Red being the other color. As to all the technical articles.  Yes i dont disagree but i honestly don't think it is an apple to apples comparison.  There is a difference between sitting at a computer 10 hrs a day and having eye strain vs using my boat at night 4 times a year for a few hrs.

    Blue light doesn't make you aggressive. And I will bludgeon anyone who says it does.  :D
