safety light

Warning glow device

A safety light is any light designed to prevent accidents or signal hazard.

In photography, it refers specifically to a dim light used in darkrooms—typically red or amber—that allows visibility without exposing light-sensitive materials: She worked under the safety light while developing prints.

Safety lights also appear on vehicles, construction sites, and emergency equipment.
