Q. What is the red flashing light on headtorch?

A. The red light on a head torch is designed for night vision – however the flashing mode is used as a distress signal. This is only to be used in emergencies, and many places like the Lake District and the Peak district will send out a mountain rescue team if a red flashing light is seen.
