It beeps when it’s done.
It beeps when you press the button.
It beeps when you place it on the base.
But today, it beeps no more.
I classify this as a repair.

That’s an insane design choice.
There’s a fan here that has a bright blue LED capable of lighting a whole room. That LED shines when the silent mode for the night is activated 🙄
So many electronics insist upon themselves. You’re a fan that blows away the fart smells in the bathroom, you are not the star of the show.
but what if my fart fan had RGBs…?
I mean… it depends how bad the fart smells are
OH YEAH? LISTEN TO THIS!
beepbeepbeeeeeeep
I use a black permanent marker on all blindingly bright LEDs. Most of mine were actually sticking out so was able to paint over them without messing up the rest of the device. Tones them down nicely, but you can still see if it’s on.
I clipped the wires in all of my salvaged case fans.
Is that how you make black lights?
At first I loved the blue LEDs when they showed up in the early 2000 but I’ve grown to hate them. Why can’t a soft green or red be used.
And do they need to be so bright that they light up the room?
And why do they have to shine with the power of industrial lasers??
Hans, switch on the Flakscheinwerfer!
When super bright LEDs became a thing they felt they needed to put them in everything. “It is new!” I went into my home office to get something and didn’t turn the light on and wondered what the blue glow in it was. It was an LED in a monitor telling me it was plugged in. My wife has me put black tape over leds on things like usb hubs because they are blindingly bright.
Don’t get me started on leds flashlights that all have multimode including rapid flashing so when the battery connection is poor, like when the flashlight gets old, if there is a split second break in power it switches to rapid flashing. Just what I need when trying to get around in the dark.
Gaffer tape. Gaffer tape everywhere. And for those LEDs that you actually want to see, but not light up the whole room, two pieces of gaffer tape with a hair’s breadth between them. Makes for an indicator light that can only really be seen when your looking straight at it.

Or even worse, bike headlamps.
