Do you keep any electronics in your bedroom? All the experts say you aren’t supposed to. But my bedroom often doubles as my office, and that means lots of electronics with distracting LED status lights and indicators. In fact, I face the problem of annoyingly bright LEDs all throughout my home, especially in my entertainment center.
With my bedroom full of electronics—including a router and modem, which seem to have the brightest LEDs ever made—I rely on LightDims to keep me sane and help me sleep better. It only costs $5 for a sheet of these LED-dimming stickers and it’s well, well worth it.
You don’t have to suffer bright LEDs
LED status indicators are everywhere—on routers and modems, on laptops while they’re charging, on desktop PC cases, even on wireless chargers. I once kept a wireless charging pad next to my bed, and it had a bright LED on it to let me know that it was indeed charging my phone… while I was sleeping. That’d be fine if it were dim, but it was so annoyingly bright. Some LEDs even blink!
The problem isn’t just about the bedroom. It can be annoying in a media center, too, where you want to focus on your TV and not the bright LED on one of the devices connected to it.
It’s also not just about your own electronics! I rented a home a few years ago that came with an unbelievably bright home security system control panel in the master bedroom. It lit up the room at night and I couldn’t exactly remove it from the wall since I was a renter. LightDims were the solution I needed, and they were quick to peel off when I moved out.
Dim all your annoying LEDs for a few bucks
Look, there’s nothing complicated about LightDims. They’re just well-made, elegant, and inexpensive—and they serve an important need because you usually can’t turn off an LED short of cracking open the device and busting out a soldering iron.
The best way to deal with an annoying LED indicator light is to use dimming stickers. With LightDims, you get a sheet of custom-cut stickers in multiple sizes and shapes that you can easily peel and stick on top of any annoying LED. When you’re done, they remove cleanly with no sticky residue. And you get about 100 stickers for $5.
Actually, they come in two varieties:
- LightDims Original Strength, which dim an LED light by about 50 to 80 percent in brightness. If an LED isn’t dim enough for you after one sticker, you can stack a second one on top of it.
- LightDims Black Out Edition, which are designed to block 100 percent of an LED’s light. Great for bedrooms!
Can you cover up those annoying LEDs with something else? Yeah, you can. I’ve personally used black painter’s tape in a pinch. But LightDims are convenient, fast, and have a clean look to them. Plus, a sheet is so cheap and lasts long enough that I don’t mind buying it.
As is typical on Amazon, you’ll see similar products and knockoffs being sold for a few cents cheaper. But I highly recommend LightDims because they’re the original high-quality product created by a small business.
