Can anyone recommend a good quality light that puts out some respectable lumens while having a built in red option for around $60 USD?
Thank you for your time!

What are you going to use it for. In some cases, the red zebralight headlamp might be ideal. But if you need to throw red light a long distance, it won't work for you.

Given the price you mentioned the only one I can think of is the Proton Pro. No, I take that back. There is a LedLenser that has both, but I'd still go for the Pro.

I had forgotten about the Proton! They didn't even have a "Pro" last time I had seen it. Its perfect though! Thanks, guys!

The Photon Fusion also has a dual white/red beam setup similar to the Proton's for under $30, although it's more of a utility light than traditional flashlight. Between the two, the Proton Pro puts out much more light though.

2 great suggestions:
1. Streamlight Packmate: 2x123 C4 (cree) led and 3mm red leds. side switch picks modes. Under 50.
2. Coleman Xponent 2x123 Cree with red leds. rotating ring/clicks picks hi/lo for red and white. Under 45.

Coleman makes one. About 90 lumens white,then a low red and blue. Runs on 3xaaa and I got mine for 20$. Forward clicky and uses a ring to change colors.

I would avoid 3xAAA lights for the reasons given in these threads:

The Proton Pro is a much better light in almost every way than the V2. I know. I have both.
