Retro Warning Light – Classic Broadcast Style Meets Modern Function
Our Retro Warning Light brings vintage charm and modern reliability to any broadcasting environment. Built using traditional sand-casting methods, the aluminum housing is precisely machined and polished to a brilliant chrome-like finish. It’s a durable, eye-catching piece that adds an authentic studio feel.
Illuminated by an energy-efficient LED strip (available in 12V or 120V), the light features a high-quality, sign-grade Lexan lens with a clear front for added protection and visual depth. Choose from standard vinyl colors—Red, Blue, or Black—and lens legends like ON-AIR, RECORDING, APPLAUSE, or SILENCE.
Designed for easy installation, the back plate is pre-drilled to mount to a single/dual gang electrical box or VESA-75 mount.
Dimensions: 14-3/8″ W x 4-1/8″ H x 2-5/8″ D Weight: 4 lbs
Add a professional, vintage-inspired touch to your studio with this iconic warning light—trusted in broadcast facilities nationwide.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
To keep your ON-AIR light looking its best and functioning properly:
- Clean regularly using a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust or smudges.
- For tougher spots, lightly dampen the cloth with water only—avoid harsh cleaners or solvents as they may damage the finish or lens.
- Do not submerge the light or expose it to excessive moisture.
- Ensure all components remain dry and avoid contact with conductive liquids.
With proper care, your ON-AIR light will continue to shine for years to come.
