Yep; mine is on the other side of the room (which isn't but 5 feet away from the trays).
Mine doesn't stay glowing bright forever. If I am in safelight or dark conditions, in 10-15 minutes, it's much less visible and is no longer a threat.
If I want to go in with light on, shut off the bright light and load some film holders, with no delay, I throw a dish/hand towel over the gralab as it will be glowing pretty good. That's plenty sufficient.
