Mayf;
My preference is for a neutral- density tint. My old Navy flight helmet
that I used to use drag racing back in the "olden days" had a pull- down
neutral- density shield and I had no trouble seeing the Christmas tree
lights.
On the other hand, some time ago I was driving cross- country and I
didn't want to stop for gas before it was really necessary so I waited
to see the red warning light on the fuel gauge come on before I looked
for a convenient gas station. Well, in the middle of Denver, the car
rolled to a stop-- out of gas. I was really annoyed that the red warning
light hadn't indicated that it was on reserve. I pulled off my green
sunglasses and there was that light-- red.
If color discrimination is important, use neutral density filters.

Ok, now that I have ordered my panel fasteners, I have another
question...aw crap you say...but here it is anyway: Some helmets can be
had with different tints to the face shield. Some are dark some are
clear and some can be amber colored. I know some yellow colors absord
blue and make for some dright day vision improvements (like shooters
glasses) so is there any experience with using something like a blue
blocker visor on your helmet? Are do we just squint a lot...
