The spectrographic charts of the Beam N Read lights with no filter are typical of LED lights and show a strong spike of blue light. However, with the orange or red filter attached, the spectrographic charts show no blue light.
The Beam N Read LED 6 Deluxe Hands Free Light includes both orange and red filters. The Beam N Read LED 3 Hands Free Travel Reading Light includes a red filter.
