In the last few years I have purchased a pressure cooker and an air fryer. They both waste electricity by having an off light. Furthermore they act like red nightlights and my kitchen has an eerie red glow at night. What is the actual purpose for off lights besides to waste electricity?

    get a Samsung appliance – they like to use ultra-bright BLINKING blue LEDs for sleep mode

      I’m never buying another Samsung monitor.

      I can literally hear it blinking on and off at night, so I need to manually turn it off.

      Damn my perfect hearing.

      I have a monitor that does that (but in white). It’s in my bedroom. I had to use electrical tape like another commenter here mentioned - I left a tiny hole in the tape so I can see a faint light up close, but it’s not making the room blink at night now.
