#277367 - 11/03/2006 02:41 Dim status lights on A/V equipment
JaBZ addict Registered: 08/08/2001 Posts: 452 Loc: NZ	hmmm thought I'd ask our trusty board this one.. I have more than 7 pieces of audio/visual equipment in my bedroom, all have varrying degress of annoying status lights, i.e. Power LED... Is there anything, like a sticker/tape, magic marker? I can use to put over these lights to dim them while I am trying to sleep? I don't want to go to the point of disconnecting/desoldering etc, I want to able able to see these lights during day/night time viewing, i..e tivo recording status..

I just put a post-it over it and it made sleeping in the same room bearable. I could still see the light through it, but it was much dimmer. _________________________ -Michael #040103696 on a shelf Mk2a - 90 GB - Red - Illuminated buttons
