Default bicycle LED as safelight

I know that this has been asked here before, but google doesn't supply
a suitable answer. Everybody seemed to want to talk about lowering
the voltages on bulbs, not using LEDs.

I have a pair of red LED bicycle taillights; three red LEDs each, red
lenses, and intend to use them as safelights. I use variable-contrast
papers. These are LEDs, not bulbs, so I figure they're more or less
monochromatic. And I've used VC papers in red-bulbed safelight
darkrooms before.

Will this work?

Seeing as there are commercially-availble LED safelighting solutions,
it would be kind of silly for me to buy them specially, if I have
something suitable already at hand.
