It is not a blacklight because that is UV light. The illuminator may have a hint of color too it, but it should mostly be invisible to the naked eye. But the manufacturer makes no mention of what the specifications of the illuminator are so you would need to verify with them if it is a wavelength that can be seen as a red glow.
