There are many problems in life that a brush and some black acrylic brush-on primer can fix. This is one of those problems :)

I fixed a power wart LED today using black electrical tape, with a needle hole.

Ideally instead I need some stick-on semitransparent dark-alpha stickers to reduce brightness. Maybe I should use two polarized stickers, and rotate the second until brightness is perfect.

Are there non-linear solutions or HEV-sensitive photochromic solutions - so that LED brightness is low in the dark but bright enough in sunny conditions?
