You'll be fine

Try to get an infra red filter for your lamp though rather than a red one. makes you less visible

Hi

I am unsure what lamp you have buy my friend recently bought an IR filter for his Deben lamp and it made a huge difference. In fact it made a cheap NV much better!

In my limited experience, the rabbits will run with a red filter on the lamp. IR is the way to go and are relatively cheap.
