really depends where you wanna keep the rig... because the human eye tends towards the yellow end of the spectrum, blue seems much fresher to our eyes, and is thus (often) seen as soothing... but if you wanna keep your rig where you sleep its red all the way... for the same reason, human eyes acclimate to red light much more rapidly, and as such a red light will cause your pupils to contract almost 55% less than a blue light (and about 75% less than a white light) of equal luminosity... blue is generally used for dusk/night defense applications because it blends alot better with the surrounding environment in low light conditions...
so really red or blue will accent your rig nicely... it just depends where you wanna keep it
One thing about blue over red, It's way easier on the eyes. red is not as soothing. I have worked with both colors at night and in Helicopters and Tanks we actually changed from red to blue subdued lights some years back because of this. I have thought about red myself and I guess I could live with it but I think I would prefer blue because of the eye fatigue factor. Blue is cooool, ah soooothing LMAO
