Changing LED color on Sager NP8170
I'm trying to figure out a way to change the color of the status indicator LEDs (above the keyboard) from white to blue. I want to do this without resoldering a tiny LED on. I was thinking of placing some sort of blue film under the cover strip where the lights shine through on the indicators. Any advice?

Got it! At work, we use blue nitrile gloves and I got to thinking....
I cut a strip and folded it 3 times then layed it under the plastic strip, above the LEDs. It definitely gave me the shade of blue I was wanting and also dimmed the ammount of light shining through. Here's a pic I took with my phone (not the best quality).

Sometimes when I visit 12v led spotlight this forum, I see threads that are absolutely pointless. Like this one.
What do you want to strip lighting fixtures discuss? You basically just told us your AV blocked a pop-up... Well, welcome to the Internet.
Also, what does this have to do with Minecraft specifically?
Your title also has nothing to gu10 led bulbs
do with anything mentioned in your post or with this forum.

Still going strong and the material hasn't melted or anything.
