Does this have a bright light on the top? (I'm easily bothered by bright lights, so want to know if I'd need to block the top with electrical tape)

It's possible that a small amount of light may leach through unless you're careful and use a lot of tape as the light is rounded around the dial. But it would be way better than what comes through without tape. It's pretty bright. If I needed to use tape (I don't as this is in the living room, not my bedroom) and there still was a small patch of light I'd just turn the unit around to face the wall. Without the tape that wouldn't make a difference but WITH tape it absolutely would.

I would call it a bright white light. That being said, the more drinks you have on the top two shelves, the less light you have filter to the bottom shelves. We leave the light on all the time, it makes a nice nightlight in the kitchen. Hope this helps.

Yes, it's a blue light indicating power is on. I don't find it distracting at all. If it bothers you, you could stick a Post-It note over it.

Unless I am misunderstanding the question, I believe that you're asking if it can be "completely dark" when the light on the top part is off. No, the power switch is very bright (to us anyway - we like a completely dark room because it's healthier for you). So I've tried several different methods - a sock for the bottom, a washcloth, and even some heavy fabric taped over the power switch. All so far allow light to escape and illuminate the nightstand area or wherever it is. Still looking for that perfect fix for this annoying problem - but otherwise it's a great diffuser for a water based type. Mine died after 7 months, and the company replaced it for me.

The answer is yes and no. You have option to turn off the light but it is still bright in the off mode. I wrap a hand towel around it to hide the lighting. The machine works awesome though so it's okay by me.

That's a really subjective question. I think it's a bright light when turned up all the way (we have ours on a dimmer) - glaring almost.

The lights are on an oval handle type thing at the top. You need to make sure and push it down all the way.

Just a suggestion, but instead of duct tape, try electrical, masking, or painter's tapes instead. They don't stick as well, but they should provide the light blocking feature you're looking for without leaving residue all over the display if you decide to take it off.

No, only the top, or only the bottom. I thought about using both lights at once, but after using it as is, one light or the other is perfect for my use, no need for both being on at the same time.

The light is on the plug, even so it can easily be blocked with tape. However the light is very unobtrusive.

Yes they are a bit bright. I just tied a bandana over it to cover the lights. Otherwise it's a wonderful fan.

You can't. That light is the indication that it is on. The best suggestion I've seen to help with this issue is to put tape and or paper over it so that it's not so bright. You COULD probably also paint it, it seems to be a closed system.

No. It is an odd design for that reason. But, it looks great. I'm going to have to add a light switch to the wire into the lights.

You can set a light on top. There is no "lid". The top doesn't open, it's just screen. Does that make sense?Thanks

I find the one light it has very distracting, so just put a small piece of dark tape (I used electrical tape) over it, and no more problem for me!

Mine came with just the white paper strip. It is there so the lite does not shine back at you. Still, too much lite comes back at you and makes it hard to see. Kind of stupid. I added strips of black electrical tape to block the lite. Even though this is a major flaw I like the lite. No more hot bulb burns and broken bulbs. Tape it up.
