"And the unit’s always-on blue glow—which indicates when its primary PECO filter is in operation—can disrupt sleep. (You can’t physically block the glow with a coin or tape, because doing so would block the Molekule’s delivery of air.)"
I'm not sure when this trend of putting blue lights on devices meant to be put in a bedroom started, or when it will end, but for me, this could be the best filter on the market (it's not) and I would still not purchase it based on the blue light.
I have a Winix Air Purifier I bought from Costco in my bedroom and while it has blue lights, they auto-shutoff in a darkened room. There is one blue indicator on the faceplate that stays on, but I remedied that with a piece of eletrical tape.

- unholythree 7y agoI’ve changed out the super high intensity blue LEDs on my computers for amber 30 MCD ones. I don’t sleep in the room with them, but if I have someone crash on my couch they don’t have search lights blinking at them all night. They’re plenty bright to see in daylight, and personally I like the retro charm.
- pkaye 7y agoThere are these decals you can buy on Amazon that fully or partially block out the light. They come in a sheet with varying shapes and sizes.
