I just received my ISY-99i and I love it. My only gripe is that the LED's are blinding especially since the unit sits directly in view from my bed.

 

Is there any way to adjust the brightness? I wonder why they chose such high intensity LED's...

No. Put something in front or turn the ISY toward the wall.

I use a black Sharpie pen on LEDs that I don't want to be as bright. Start on the outside edges working inward until you get the light level you want. It works well and you can wipe it off incase you need the LEDs to uncovered someday.

I put my isy in a wiring closet. It was nice having it by my bed, but after a while I too grew annoyed of the bright leds. Now that it is in a wiring closet, along with the rest of my networking equipment, I sleep much better. You could try electrical tape over the leds or turning the unit around.

Hello everyone,

 

Thank so very much for the feedback. Even though there's currently no way for dimming the LEDs, we'll surely take this into consideration in our future HW designs.

 

With kind regards,

Out of curiosity, was there a particular reason you chose to use high intensity LED's?

 

Happy New Year!

Hello ahwman,

 

Excellent question and the answer is that we had complaints about the green not being bright enough. So, presupposing that ISY would be where the router is (and probably hidden) we went for the brightest blue LED on the market!

 

With kind regards,

Michel

I guess it's true that you can't please everyone...

 

Have a blessed New Year!

You need to put the thing in the bathroom. That way, it becomes a night light

Gee my older model with a green LED is just right in my computer room. Next to the router.

 

I wish I could say the same about my early SwitchLincs with those bright LEDs. Even the dark blue or frosted white light pipes only assist to a point.
