I needed a new safelight as my old Delta Junior bulb got smashed in the process of moving house, so I drove 1.5 hrs to the closest camera shop to me and picked up the "Kalt Mini Red Safelight", product #NP11178. It fogged my paper almost instantly, completely unusable . Just to be sure I stood in my darkroom for ten or fifteen minutes to make sure there were no light leaks anywhere, none. I did the coin test under the safe light, failed miserably. I am using Ilford Multigrade IV, same paper I used under my old safelight. Figured that a red safelight was a red safelight, am I missing something important?
Thanks
