'''Covenant work lights''' are small silver colored lights that are found on the ground during many [[Halo]] [[level]]s, most notably [[343 Guilty Spark (Level)|343 Guilty Spark]] and [[Truth and Reconciliation (Level)|Truth and Reconciliation]].


At first glance, it would seem that these lights are of [[Forerunner]] origin due to their placement, shape and appearance. However, this is disproved by the fact that in [[Halo: The Flood]] [[William C. Dietz]] stated that they were the [[Covenant]] work lights. They are placed in areas of high priority or low light conditions, such as a swamp or a desert at night. They are rectangular in shape and give off a bluish-white light. They are often placed along walls, and point upward.
