A trip to the toilet in the night would be a situation where I’d use a red headlamp and brought the thrower with me just in case. Getting settled into the tent and as a nightlight very low red/amber light doesn’t disturb your eyesight nor your sleep hormones.

All of what he said, plus it attracts less bugs.

The animals see you at night just fine, they are well adapted, that’s their environment after all…
