Glow from portable ac

[perpetr8r]

Hi all. Will the blue glow from a portable ac unit constitute a damaging light leak in the flower room? I can cover the panel but the glow comes out the back as well. It's kinda bright so.......

I say 'possibly', because brightness is a matter of relativity, here ... best to cover it , enough, so it is not a direct light, on the plant ... I read a technical botanical article, that stated plants needed 'X'-amount of light, over the ENTIRE plant, before it causes changes in the plant ... I don't claim to know how true that is ... but, moonlight, remember that ? ... ever see a full moon, so bright, you could read by it ? ... but, it didn't screw up the plants ? ... of course ... eliminate all the stray light you can, and hope for the best :smokin:

I was wondering the same thing about my Tri-Meter. I mounted it on the wall right next to my plant and the yellow numbers shine on one of the buds during the night, but I haven't seen anything negative yet.

Thanks for the replies guys. I did some modifications to the circuit board on the new machine and disabled the light so no more problems there I appreciate the help :thumbsup:
