A Lighthouse Far Away

A candle in the distance.

In other words, Remote Illumination.

I have acquired a Manhattan S4-R Freesat Recorder.

I watch telly in the dark, so I can't see the buttons on the remote.

Can anyone recommend a dim torch?

Something far less bright than a mobile phone torch?

Any suggestions?
 
So, what are you going to do — hold the torch in one hand while operating the handset with the other? Wouldn't a dim desklamp be more effective?

Astronomers use dim red lamps / torches, to avoid destroying their dark vision (it takes about 20 minutes to re-acclimatise).
 
The remote for my Denon AV amp has glow in the dark buttons, could you get a learing remote that did that or maybe even one that has backlit buttons? It would be a neater solution than fumbling around to find a torch and the remote. If not some of those little key fob torches are pretty dim and could be attached to the remote quite easily to always be where needed.
