Studio Seconds Retro Light — Classic Broadcast Design
The Studio Seconds Retro Warning Light delivers the iconic broadcast look that defines On-Air Lights—designed to make your signal instantly recognizable the moment someone enters the space. Its timeless silhouette and bold presence make it ideal for studios, control rooms, and creative environments where clarity and authority matter.
Each unit uses the same traditionally sand-cast aluminum housing, precisely machined and polished to a chrome-like finish. These housings are classified as Studio Seconds due to minor cosmetic blemishes on the exterior that do not impact performance, fit, or function.
Inside, a modern LED light strip (available in 12V or 120V) provides bright, energy-efficient illumination. The Retro Warning Light features a sign-grade Lexan lens with a clear front panel that enhances visual depth and protects the vinyl lettering. Choose from standard vinyl colors—Red, Blue, or Black—and customize with legends such as ON-AIR, RECORDING, APPLAUSE, or SILENCE.
Installation is simple and versatile, with a back plate pre-drilled to mount to a single or dual-gang electrical box or a VESA-75 mount.
Dimensions: 14-3/8″ W × 4-1/8″ H × 2-5/8″ D Weight: 4 lbs
Whether you’re running a professional broadcast studio or an at-home recording space, the Studio Seconds Retro Warning Light delivers unmistakable presence—without compromise.

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.

The ON-AIR Light Company is powered by two friends—Scott and Chris—who have been building together since the late ’90s.
