There are some red flashlights, but I notice they only come
with an on/off mode:

Solarforce-sales.com in Hong Kong has a 5 mode red P60 drop-in listed. In fact I have it on order and supposedly on the way. They charged $2.00 US for shipping of the order of two drop-ins and a flashlight body. It can fit their P60 drop-in compatible light bodies or many others from Surefire and other vendors. Until I have it in hand I have no idea of beam width, intensity etc. They also list green and blue 5 mode drop-ins too but the blue is illegal for vehicle use except for police in most states. Single mode P60 drop-ins are listed as available in these colors plus UV, IR, yellow and orange.
