LEDs on electronics need either a maximum brightness or an adjustable brightness. I have taken to covering the LEDs on charger bricks with Sharpie/tape (often multiple layers of tape) to dampen the brightness because I cannot function with these damn things at night.

Same, all my electronics look like abominations of electric tape, it's the only way I can have them not light up my room at night.

Did you try just shutting off the current?

Right. Gonna do that with the humidifier

That I need

To make my room bearable during drought season

Or the split AC.

That I also need

To make my room bearable during summer.

Can you see how that would be a problem?

People who make electric devices are putting blinding blue LEDs in a million places they do not and will never belong.
