Almost nothing distracts me more than crawling into my comfy bed, turning off my smart lights and seeing shadows on the wall of what should be a pitch-black bedroom. The culprit is almost always a new device with an LED indicator light brighter than a full moon. So I trudge to the toolbox, grab my trusty roll of electrical tape and cut off a piece to haphazardly stick over the offending LED, or two if it's especially bright.
A month ago, I discovered cheap Jieheng LED Light Blocking and Dimming stickers on Amazon, and I'm never going back.
Here's why these stickers are so life-changing.
What I love about these stickers
These pre-cut stickers come in various shapes and sizes, which makes them ideal for covering indicator lights throughout my apartment. Of the two types of blackout stickers in the pack, I love the 50% dimming variant for smart home hubs, surge protectors and other devices where I occasionally need to check their operational status. They're great for taking the edge off the bright displays on some kitchen appliances. I've also doubled up stickers to increase the dimming effect on the worst offenders without blocking them entirely.
I use the 100% blocking stickers on everything else, including a large green button on my laser printer. For years, I draped a thick piece of plastic over this button since tape would cause the button to stick. Now, a well-placed, perfectly sized blackout sticker turns the button into a tiny ring of light without affecting its movement.
One of the biggest advantages of these Jieheng stickers is that they come in black and white colors, so you can match them to your device. I've seen a few brands selling multiple colors, including silver, most competitors only come in black -- or sell their white stickers separately.
