At age 59 my eyes have taken a beating.
As typical for my age, my vision has diminished color saturation and contrast compared to 40 years ago.
For detailed vision, such as preflighting my helicopter, I find myself augmenting my vision with a flashlight.
Other pilots my age do the same thing.
I presently use a maglite, but I find its yellow light less than satisfactory.
I would really like an LED type of light that put out a true white light, as close as possible to natural sunlight.
Power doesn't matter as much as good color, small size (belt scabbard), long battery life and reasonable cost.
Suggestions?
