After reading the post from @solrize regarding potential benefits of far-red light on cellular respiration, I bought a Convoy S2+ with the 660nm Luminus SST-20. It's red. Very red.

@solrize There's not much heat from the Convoy. I can hold the lens against my skin with it on in the highest mode for many seconds with no discomfort. It pulls about 2A at the tail, so about 8W of electricity, which would definitely result in discomfort at contact distance with a white LED.

I do find pointing it straight into my eyes uncomfortable.

Thanks, yeah, the campfire was making many kilowatts of IR, I'm sure.
