Product Description
RH Designs successfully sell two low-cost darkroom torches. Called SafeTorches, one is a black and white (red) model and the other is for colour (yellow) work.
The b/w version produces a bright beam or safe red light ideal for print inspection during development or for locating that dropped dodging tool! The colour version is useful for general orientation in the darkroom while colour materials are exposed - it should not be used for direct illumination of colour materials although the wavelength of the LED light has been chosen to match the minimum sensitivity of colour papers. Housed in a small plastic key-fob style enclosure with a cord which can be worn around the neck or wrist, the SafeTorch can be held and operated with one hand. The momentary switch action ensures it cannot be left on accidentally.
It operates on a single 12v alkaline battery (included).
We think this is an ideal personal torch to keep with at all times in the darkroom.
