$200 dollar fan that I can’t turn off the lighting. It’s blinding bright.

[u/Medical-Net-7350]

[u/beemer-dreamer]

$200 for a fan is mind blowing.

[u/blackend_bruises → u/beemer-dreamer]

no, it’s wind blowing

[u/TransitTycoonDeznutz → u/blackend_bruises]

It better be blowing me for that price

[u/SparkleFritz → u/TransitTycoonDeznutz]

I'm imagining a meth head spending 48 straight hours concocting some sort of hook and string system attached to a lubed dick sleeve that in theory should rotate it around quickly but instead it just makes their dick do helicopters as they keep getting upset and screaming "NOT STABLE! NO MORE COPTERS!"

I need to go back to bed.

[u/TransitTycoonDeznutz → u/SparkleFritz]

I need to go back to bed.

Or get a job writing for adult swim lmao

[u/SparkleFritz → u/TransitTycoonDeznutz]

Frylock: "Carl why are you bleeding?"

Carl: "It's nothing don't worry about it."

long pause

Shake: "Was it the helicopter agai--"

Carl: "I SAID ITS NOTHING!"

[u/--Ano-- → u/SparkleFritz]

sobs in grief, then runs into the shower and tries to wash off the shame while crying "why? why?"

[u/Sufficient_Wafer9933 → u/SparkleFritz]

Carl..... that kills people....

[u/SeaSetsuna → u/SparkleFritz]

Trying to recapture the magic of your first Tennessee Tornado, a tale as old as time

[u/torturekiller2025 → u/SparkleFritz]

...Rest easy, bud. 😳

[u/torturekiller2025 → u/blackend_bruises]

For $200.00, it better blow something.

[u/OliveBranchMLP → u/blackend_bruises]

it is a linguistic crime that these two words don't rhyme

[u/--Ano-- → u/OliveBranchMLP]

Its a story as old as thyme.

[u/Krimreaper1 → u/blackend_bruises]

I have an oscillating fan at my house. It goes back and forth. It looks like the fan is saying 'no.' So I like to ask it questions that a fan would say 'no' to! Do you keep my hair in place? Do you keep my documents in order? Do you have 3 settings? LIAR!

[u/Ja_Shi → u/beemer-dreamer]

It better be at that price

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/Ja_Shi]

The fan works extremely well at least… but the lighting is crazy. Idk why everything needs lights nowadays

[u/kwonza → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Do you own electric tape?

[u/Justanotherturdle → u/kwonza]

in this economy?

[u/QuickAcct1x1 → u/kwonza]

I prefer that reusable poster-tac stuff. It comes off easier, blocks light well, and is easy to form into whatever size&shape. 

[u/DragonDan108 → u/kwonza]

Gaffer tape is currently in use over here covering two different appliances blue LED's. It's always blue LED's.

[u/titsmcgee4real → u/kwonza]

I lease electrical tape.

[u/Atmacrush → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Get a roll of painter's tape or electrical tape and cover the lights. You can also dim down the light if you don't mind using a sharpie to cover where the lights are coming out.

[u/HoneyBear4Lyfe → u/Atmacrush]

I have a secret recipe for all of my electronics’ overbright LEDs: 2 layers of painter’s tape with sharpie, then fine tune with 1-3 layers plain flavor painter’s tape until I can see that the device is on without it keeping me awake at night.
Unless it strobes/blinks. In that case I scrape the bulb out with a screwdriver, the wires to the light get snipped, or I just bury it in e-tape and duct tape.

[u/MuscaMurum → u/Atmacrush]

I adhere a small bit of aluminum foil on the tape that sits over the LED before sticking on the tape. That way the quality of the tape is less of an issue.

[u/BunkySpewster → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Did you get the instructions off the internet to double check?

I had the same issue with a air purifier. Then one day i rested my hand on the unit to steady myself: all the lights shut off!

Turns out, if you hold the light button for ten seconds (whoch only controlled brightness) all the lights would shut off. 

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/BunkySpewster]

The bottom light can be turned off, but the display lights cannot be dimmed or turned off.

[u/TheGothWhisperer → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Blu tac is my go-to for these things

[u/Fruitypebblefix → u/Medical-Net-7350]

What's it look like in daylight?

[u/DoublePostedBroski → u/beemer-dreamer]

That’s how much ceiling fans are for the most part

[u/jamesianm → u/beemer-dreamer]

It's not just a $200 fan. It's a $200 dollar fan. They paid so much for it the units doubled

[u/coffeebribesaccepted → u/jamesianm]

That's 40,000 sqdllrs!

[u/Blom-w1-o → u/beemer-dreamer]

Especially when that exact fan sold for $99 less than 2 years ago (I have the same fan, bought it from walmart).

[u/Scared_Swing2198 → u/beemer-dreamer]

Then i suggest you never look at Big-Ass fans.

[u/Shaorn575 → u/Scared_Swing2198]

I wish I could put one in my house but it would probably scrape the walls.

[u/OPs_Mom_and_Dad → u/beemer-dreamer]

Dad here. Bravo.

[u/iminiki]

Immediate refund. And next time don’t pay $200 for a fan.

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/iminiki]

Thankfully I didn’t pay 200 for it, but that’s what it’s going for according to Walmart and Amazon. Crazy..

[u/travisofficial → u/Medical-Net-7350]

pro tip: it never “goes for” whatever higher price anywhere

[u/grundleHugs → u/travisofficial]

50% off! Just $100!

[u/DauntingPear → u/grundleHugs]

Permanently!

[u/ledocteur7 → u/[deleted]]

There are browser add-ons that keep track of product pricing in a graph, it's pretty fascinating.

Some countries (and the EU) has regulations so that the "normal" pricing must be real at least for some amount of time during a year.

That's why they have so many promotions all the time, with just a few days in between when it is at the listed price.

By the end of the year it spent maybe 1 month at that price, just enough for the regulation.

And ofc plenty of online stores just don't give a shit and do it illegally.

[u/PloofElune → u/travisofficial]

Camelcamelcamel that shit peeps.

[u/glytxh → u/Medical-Net-7350]

So it’s not a $200 fan then

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/glytxh]

I mean that’s allegedly what all the stores sell it as. I got it second hand.

[u/FairleySwordfish → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Well then, whatever you DID pay for it is the number to quote in the post

[u/EnergyTakerLad → u/FairleySwordfish]

Actually, no... its sold for $200 in stores, so it should be counted as $200 quality. OP isnt even saying that it works badly, just that the lights are too much for night use. You'd think a $200 fan wouldnt have such a design flaw.

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/FairleySwordfish]

I see. Didn’t know. It seems to be usually that price and since I bought it second hand, the price I paid isn’t the normal price that everyone else pays.

[u/therico]

$0.20 for some tape you can use to cover that up

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/therico]

Good idea, thanks.

[u/Wikadood → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Use some black electrical tape to completely block out all the light

[u/mm56 → u/Wikadood]

Buy a $1 bottle of black nail polish. It'll last forever and it looks so much better than the electrical tape.

[u/homeguitar195 → u/mm56]

Or better, buy a small (touch-up) bottle of black acrylic lacquer at the hardware store. Nail polish is just acrylic laquer at a steep markup in a cute even-smaller bottle.

[u/mm56 → u/homeguitar195]

You need so little of it, that you're not going to run out if this is what you use it for. Also comes with a brush built in. And I literally paid $0.99 for my bottle on Amazon.

[u/SkeezixLouise → u/mm56]

And like you said in your previous comment, it will last forever. There's a gal whose whole social media presence is about reviving antique nail polish. She's worked on bottles from the 40s (and maybe even older?) and gotten them useable again. The shit seriously does not expire!

[u/El-SkeleBone → u/SkeezixLouise]

its just paint dissolved in ethyl acetate, if it goes bad just add some more solvent

[u/naturelover47 → u/mm56]

$1.12: https://www.walmart.com/ip/L-A-COLORS-Color-Craze-Nail-Polish-Circuits-0-44-fl-oz/35018817

[u/Kaelen-Farron → u/Medical-Net-7350]

growing up I used blutac to cover up stuff like this thay would keep me awake

[u/FloofySnekWhiskers → u/Kaelen-Farron]

I still use blu tac to cover up these damn little leds on stuff!

[u/bakeland → u/Medical-Net-7350]

I would have thrown a beanie on it and called it a night

[u/GrynaiTaip → u/[deleted]]

The craziest thing is that people buy "special LED-blocking tape" for 5x the price, when any plain electrical tape would work exactly the same.

I've also seen small round stickers made for that, selling for 100x the price (a small sheet of stickers for $5). I assume they're made for people who aren't allowed to use scissors.

[u/diymuppet → u/GrynaiTaip]

I tried electrical tape and it left horrid glue that had melted slightly because of the heat.

Also tried a variety of stickers, blocked some light but not all.

I'm a big fan of using the right tools for the job, this stuff works a treat and didn't leave a mark when i had to move it.

[u/mentosbreath → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Some might say that’s a bright idea

[u/Hi_Hello_HeyThere → u/Medical-Net-7350]

A couple of layers of blue painters tape works well for me, and that way you can also remove it if you ever want to without having a lot of sticky residue left over

[u/Independent-Heron-75 → u/Medical-Net-7350]

On amazon you can buy tinted stickers to make led displays darker but still readable if you need. I have an ac i still need to read the temp setting etc it just makes it dark enough to sleep better.

[u/lurking-bastard → u/therico]

my father used air dry black nail polish. a thin enough coat and you can still see the light if you need to, but dimmer. and if you wanna block it out entirely, just put a thicker layer on

[u/FeelMyBoars → u/therico]

I raided the kid's sticker collection. Much more fun.

[u/nobody_gah]

I frickin hate how companies add unnecessary LED flairs that serve no other purpose other than a crappy design

[u/homeguitar195 → u/nobody_gah]

I hate how every LED seems to be blue now, for no reason. Oh, you wanted to glance at the time on the microwave clock while it's dark? You're too far away and can't read it because of the chromatic aberration, and as a side benefit now your night vision's screwed for a few minutes.

Nearly unreadable day or night. Just give me the red or pale green they used to be.

[u/Grinchy-Grinch531 → u/homeguitar195]

It's weird. Blue Light became enough of a concern that people are using filtering glasses and devices have low blue light modes. Manufacturing/design looked at this and said "hey, let's make all of the indicator light on everything extremely blue."

[u/Erzbengel-Raziel → u/Grinchy-Grinch531]

eeeh, most of the "blue light = bad sleep" comes from a flawed study that didn't have a proper control group. (a subsequent study showed that it's not blue light, but simply "a lot of light" that's bad for sleep)

Still stupid to make information indicators inteusive.

[u/squeefruit → u/Erzbengel-Raziel]

Very curious on this topic, would love to read those studies if you have any links (that aren't behind a paywall)?

[u/araidai → u/squeefruit]

This is the very few times I’d say AI might be your friend when it comes to finding paywalled data. It’s helped me out of a bind before lol. I usually ask it “Can you link me academic studies/papers about x topic?” And more often than not, it somehow finds pdf files that would normally be locked behind some form of lock/paywall, and since you’re asking it for links, it can’t really make shit up since it’s just listing data for you, rather than actively summarizing/generating new data for you. (I’d still 100% verify the papers themselves are of any value though)

[u/nobody_gah → u/Erzbengel-Raziel]

Well blue light is technically more sensitive to our eyes than warm light in the dark at the same brightness so I think it correlates directly anyways. There's also a lot of research that blue light wavelengths does specifically inhibit melatonin compared to other colors

[u/Lugonn → u/homeguitar195]

We spent like thirty years trying to make blue LEDs and by god we're gonna use them.

[u/brando56894 → u/homeguitar195]

I bought a Bluetooth adapter for my car. It has a ring of rainbow LEDs around the dial and the cigarette lighter adapter...but the buttons aren't backlit so you can't see them at night. You can turn off the LED lights around the dial though! 🤦🏻🤦🏻

[u/HoneyBear4Lyfe → u/nobody_gah]

In a world full of horror and injustice, I feel pretty silly that the discovery of my fancy new stuff being covered in unturnoffable strobing LEDs fills me with unparalleled rage.

[u/Aselleus → u/nobody_gah]

I had to open up and cover some of the led lights in my USB port because they were way too bright

[u/beemer-dreamer]

That price just blows!

[u/undecimbre → u/beemer-dreamer]

And on the other side, it sucks!

[u/SvenRich93 → u/undecimbre]

I heard in the wind that you guys are funny

[u/germane_switch]

Now I’m invested. Are you 100% sure you can’t turn off the lights? Did you read the manual? What make and model is it?

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/germane_switch]

I can turn the light on the bottom that illuminated the floor off. The display lights at the top I can’t turn off no. It’s a Lasko Duo Comfort. here is the website

[u/germane_switch → u/Medical-Net-7350]

I downloaded the PDF manual from that website and I searched for one word, light. It then explains how to turn off the ambient LED. That might be exactly the info you’re looking for. Give it a try? I have a feeling it does nothing for the top lights.

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/germane_switch]

Correct. It turns off the floor light, but the top lights no. They’re too bright to even look at during the day.

[u/germane_switch → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Argh. I have a Winixx grow air purifier that has a night mode that’s dark but the fan is quiet. I need noise to sleep so I can’t use night mode at all lol. I wound up buying a set of assorted blackout stickers that cover the various sizes of lights on the filter. Like others have said here they are pricier but for me they are 100% worth it because they don’t leave any residue and they are designed for zero light passthrough. They come in black and white, too.

[u/killershwee → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Lasko must have a hell of a range of fans. My Lasko was the cheapest oscillating fan Walmart had in stock at $20. For $200 I would have guessed Dyson or something. Other than the lights, is it worth it?

[u/CeruleanEidolon → u/germane_switch]

Sometimes these things have a brightness setting but it doesn't actually have 0 as an option, and the dimmest is still too bright in a dark room.

[u/beemer-dreamer]

This would be a good post on r/OnlyFans

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/[deleted]]

Never heard of this, thanks! I appreciate it.

[u/secondphase → u/[deleted]]

Damn. I have some cool dinosaur stickers, but they aren't designed for light dimming.

[u/dbowman97]

Blue LEDs need to be prohibited on anything that might end up in a bedroom. It’s amazing this still happens.

[u/BestReception4202]

Cover the light with tape

[u/Chef-Nasty]

Gotta ask, what fan is it? An air purifier/ionizer I get but a regular ass fan? Even my Levoit room purifier has an option to torn off the leds

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/Chef-Nasty]

It’s a heater/fan combo.

I DID figure out how to turn off the bottom light that shines onto the floor, but the top lights cannot be turned off.

I’ll definitely have to take everyone’s suggestions here and get some electrical tape.

Edit: Didn’t know the brand until today, it’s a Lasko Duo Comfort.

[u/Saradoesntsleep → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Which one is it though?

[u/viper1701 → u/Saradoesntsleep]

If they post the model, someone will tell them how to turn off the lights. Can't have that!

[u/wombatthing → u/Saradoesntsleep]

Probably something that's 20 dollars

[u/Saradoesntsleep → u/wombatthing]

Yeah probably. It's weird how evasive he's being in refusing to answer.

Honestly I just want to know because I can't make sense of the picture. Like it it a ceiling fan?

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/Saradoesntsleep]

Sorry, it was nighttime so I was trying to sleep, I wasn’t ignoring the post. It’s a Lasko Duo Comfort.

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/Saradoesntsleep]

Sorry, it was nighttime so I was trying to sleep, I wasn’t ignoring the post. It’s a Lasko Duo Comfort.

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/Saradoesntsleep]

Didn’t know until today. It’s a Lasko Duo Comfort

[u/LastPirateAlive → u/Medical-Net-7350]

Asking as well which fan is it exactly so we can avoid it

[u/cmdixon2 → u/Medical-Net-7350]

The heater aspect is likely why the light can't be turned off. It's following safety regulations. Can't speak to the brightness factor though.

[u/National_Plate_8819]

The companies that make fans love to have lights inside that you can’t turn off so you end up tapping it over with electrical tape.

[u/Mega_Trix]

Look at all the marketing that went into that price tag lol

[u/South_Kitchen4289]

Just in general - why does EVERYTHING need absurdly bright LED light indicators??

[u/pH03N1xM]

Duct tape?

[u/SuddenAtmosphere5984 → u/pH03N1xM]

But what if it's a ductless fan?

[u/Mad_Wee_Phone]

I would just use some blue tack/white tack to cover up the lights

[u/DoctorGluino]

Lots of people are suggesting electrical tape, but they also make translucent tape specifically for this purpose, if you still want to be able to see the status lights. You can put on multiple layers to achieve the amount of dimming you want.

[u/AiRaikuHamburger]

I recommend blackout stickers. I've stuck them over all the LEDs in my bedroom.

[u/ZoeyBee_3000]

My three solutions: 1) electrical tape over the LED; 2) take some stuff apart and punch the light out myself; 3) return that shit and buy a new fan without lights

[u/nourishurbrain]

I thought you were at a rave

[u/skeletomania]

Nail polish over those lights will make it less eye searing bright

[u/mentosbreath]

Maybe the wall switch or electric connection to the fan was done incorrectly? I just installed a bath fan and initially did it wrong and the light wouldn’t turn off.

[u/Chickennoodleyum]

I got excited for a minute thinking someone got a good picture of ufo activity

[u/CapsuCraft]

Look up “Lightdims” on Amazon. Yes, tinted stickers, but they’re good.

[u/Chroney]

If it's a Dyson you can change the brightness of the LEDs with the remote by holding down a button I forget which, at least I can

[u/wooperwifi]

Why do they always make the lights the most piercing blue too???

I cover up the annoying lights on my fan with blutack

[u/exprezso]

Open it up, and disconnect the bulbs

[u/Jluvcoffee]

It better blow itself for that price, lol

[u/Mr_master89]

Yeah I've had fans like that too, I just end up putting tape around it. I have one that lets me control it with my phone and can turn the lights on it off but the remote it came with didn't have the option to.

[u/Recent-Divide-9142]

Kapton tape tames blue LEDs.

[u/JJ-Rousseau]

It's so fucking stupid to have a company that makes fan and don't even realize some people use fan when they sleep.

[u/MaraSovsLeftSock]

Doubt those lights are important. Get some electrical tape or drill out the bulbs

[u/shazarakk]

Recommend Dreo for fans at that price, at least this one

Mute, lights off, practically silent on low, even remarkably quiet on max, remote, has wifi, but you don't need to use it at all, thank fuck.

Best of all, that thing moves the fuck out of the air.

[u/FellowHumanNo404 → u/shazarakk]

has wifi

Why???

[u/HempusMaximus → u/FellowHumanNo404]

So they can force you to download the app to get an extra feature or two so they can steal your information.

[u/TheRoseMerlot]

I cover all lights like that with electrical tape.

[u/neekthefreak]

my mission with any piece of tech i get is to delete buzzers and leds. if you can't dissolder due to warranty then a drop hot glue on buzzers to dampen sound and black nail polish for leds (whipe it off with designed solvent)

[u/SvenRich93]

What brand/model?

[u/Medical-Net-7350 → u/SvenRich93]

Lasko Duo Comfort. The bottom light I found can be turned off, but the display lights at the top cannot.

[u/NastyKraig]

I can't wait to see this picture posted in r/aliens in a couple hours

[u/AngryVegan94]

I’ve had to cover every sleep fan I’ve ever owned with black duct tape. I have no clue why companies add bright ass LEDs to devices that typically sit right in front of your face when you’re trying to sleep.

[u/potatoalt1234_x]

Put blu tack over it (or putty or something)

[u/StatisticianNo5402]

i use black tape

[u/in1gom0ntoya]

most likely a user error

[u/WhyNotYoshi]

Blinding lights. Somebody should write a song about that.

[u/IndigoRose2022]

I put black electrical tape over a fan light before. It was so bright it took 2 layers and was still tolerably bright afterward.

[u/itsjakerobb]

Get these and put them over the LEDs. Super cheap and more presentable than regular electrical tape. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYZ9VM9J

[u/diverareyouokay]

Hah, I had a similar problem on a cheap fan I bought in SE Asia. I ended up using electrical tape to cover the LEDs.

[u/Jho-oh]

Electric tape to the rescue!

[u/Zinc-Roof_22]

You can definitely disable the lighting, but it could be permanent.

[u/DrDosMucho]

Electrical tape is a god send. I also bought like light covering black stickers for the kids room that helped a lot for lights like on a modem

[u/Clear_Clear_Clear]

I’m curious what fan it is

[u/Davica_Designs]

this might be a grow light

[u/azsqueeze]

Can you post better photos or a link to the product. I literally have no idea what I'm looking at

[u/Falling-Toaster]

tf you spend $200 on a fan L O L

[u/Jakaple]

Get some aluminum tape

[u/Gator242]

Put a sock on it

[u/funtongue]

Looks like a UAP/UFO looking for livestock

[u/Lcatg]

Black electrical tape & various other colors of it. I’ve got it everywhere since they put clocks & lights on everything. I appreciate a digital clock in the kitchen, but I do not need a clock on: the stove, the ovens, there microwave, the dishwasher, & the refrigerator as well. More & more are LED for no good reason. Be sure to buy at least black & white electrical tape. Most smoke/other detectors come in white & have a bright green light on them. White will allow a bit of the light to shine thru (allowing you to see if it’s time to change the battery or if there’s a problem), although most have a sound alarm it’s best to get safe.

[u/--Ano--]

Crappy design for sure.

But to open a new line of discussion:
Have you tried to destroy the light?

Maybe you can break off the LED or you could cut the cables of the LED.

Or take a black pen and cover it.

[u/x16900]

There was a fancy black 3-tier floor fan back in the 2000's that I thought was just sooo cool and had to have. The first night I tried to sleep with it on it looked like three blue spotlights beaming me in the face. Ended up having to cover them in electrical tape.

[u/No_Trouble_3588]

Cover them with electrical tape. Problem solved.

[u/owleaf]

I had something similar - “night mode” only dimmed the display with all the numbers and icons. Stupid design. Sold it off in the middle of a summer and bought a Dyson fan

[u/LemmonLizard]

$200?! Why not just buy one of those cheap pedestal oscillating fans at home depot that arguably works better and has zero LED's

OP i would return this immediately. You got robbed.

[u/MoshJaddox]

I can’t understand why I’m even looking at. How does this work?

[u/Exact-Race-6139]

tape

[u/YungBandit79]

i made a hood for my annoying light up tower fan

[u/Frosty_Message_3017]

Electrical tape will cover it completely

[u/Type_Zer07]

My humidifier is the same but I have a few post it notes covering the light.

[u/brmarcum]

I would love some more context. Maybe a link to the product or a picture with normal lighting.

[u/DeadSkullz627]

That’s not an issue, that’s a feature 👍

[u/brubruislife]

Is there not a sleep setting?? That should turn off the lights.

[u/kea87]

Led light dimming stickers. A bunch of them

[u/baconegg2]

Black duct tape

[u/c4ts4r3lif3]

They sell led blocking stickers. I had to get them for my fan, they work great but I wish I got ones that are darker

[u/SquidRamen2001]

Your karma for blowing $200 on something that makes air move

[u/APiousCultist]

The blinding blue LED cartel continues its bullshit. Throw some nail varnish or electrical tape on the lights.

[u/blipp1]

This fan comes with The Blinding Lights soundtrack

[u/ninjawsome]

For that price you might as well grab yourself a vornado really great fans don't make a lot of noise

[u/Trysax]

Well I recommend watching a quick electrical wiering tutorial on yt. The might very easily be disabled (permanently unless u wire it back) by just opening the fan and disconnecting the power cables that run to the light.

[u/Dr_Tacopus]

A hammer will certainly turn off those lights

[u/C0ffinCase]

Buy some tinted window film and cover them

[u/Signal-Resident-7787]

Get some $40 tape, and a $50 eye mask

[u/KingRhys1404]

I have this same problem with an expensive room humidifier by Honeywell. I love everything else about it- but it's like they don't consider bedroom nighttime use. It's now covered in three rows of electrical tape and I just know where the buttons are. Kinda sad for what's supposed to be a high-end unit.

[u/SeaExpress9551]

Unrelated, but this could so pass for a UFO sighting photo, if given no context.

[u/DreadCircle]

Nothing a little electrical tape over the lights cant fix and if they are that bright you should still be able to see them through the tape

[u/KuhLealKhaos]

Pillowcase dat thing

[u/I_mourn_satire]

Get a black paint marker and cover the LEDs

[u/ResponsibleFill6835]

Do not hate on this fan I have the exact fan and I love it 💔😭

[u/throwawaybottlecaps]

They make dimming tape you can stick over it. Useful when you still want to see what the display says but don’t want to stare directly into a lightbulb.

[u/SherbertConstant7393]

That's a UFO 👽

[u/GrimyGoose]

Electrical tape can fix that

[u/zcpibm3]

Put a tape across those lights

[u/salikarn]

If you spent $200 on a fan, $25 for a roll of gaff tape should be doable. Tape over the lights.
