Tools and Hardware Reviews of Petzl E44850 Tikka/Zipka 3-Lens Kit
Customer Review: More fun than practical.
Summary: 2 Stars
First, a small disclaimer; I'm not an outdoors type person. I have a headlamp purely for fun.
I bought this with the savings on the headlamp. The lens filters are constructed with the same high quality standards as all Petzl products.
However, the red filter is a very mild red. To me, it almost looks more like a darker orange than a full red. In fact, when the headlamp is on, it casts an orange light with the middle of the beam (almost) a pink (from the mixing of the bluish light from the headlamp and the filter). I'm guessing Petzl used a lighter red to keep the brightness of the headlamp up, but I would have much preferred to have less light and a darker red.
I didn't spend as much time with the green filter, but I will note that it has a slight teal tint to it.
As far as the purpose of having a red filter to help preserve your night-vision, I can't say that I noticed any benefit to installing the red (or the green) filter.
