Dim It ® light dimming sheets

I had to purchase a new alarm clock after my 10 year old Emerson SmartSet finally died. Wouldn't power on anymore. I'd had it for years. It was one of those cool "smart" Emerson alarm clocks that programs itself when you plug it in and later automatically adjusts to daylight saving time. So...I set out to buy another one. I bought the current model of the Emerson smart clock at Walmart. It seems to work okay. Plugged it up and watched it immediately program itself. That's what I want! Fast forward: bedtime. I turned the lights off, and suddenly we have a blue lighthouse in the corner of the bedroom. You could read a book by the light. I switched it to "dim," and now you can only read a book if you're next to it...laying in the bed. I can't sleep like this! I have light blocking curtains just to block out the moonlight! We didn't sleep for days. We were exhausted.So, I came to Amazon for a potential solution. I ordered this tint film try to dim the light to a bearable level. Let that sink in for a minute: I bought a $19 alarm clock from Walmart...and then I bought TINT for it. And I couldn't wait for it to arrive.When these little tint sheets arrive, I ripped it open, eyeballed it to size (it's an alarm clock for crying out loud; it's not like I'm tinting a car) and cut it down with my pocket knife (ain't got no time for scissors). I slapped this baby on...and I could barely see the clock from across the room in broad daylight. Oh yeah, I forgot it was on dim. Switched to bright. That works! But...wait until bedtime.Bedtime arrived, I smacked the dim button on the alarm clock and crawled in bed. The alarm clock, even on dim, is still too bright. But at least now, it's manageable to the point we've been able to get used to it. This tint dimmed it considerably and did just what it advertised to do! I can't fault this product for an incredibly poor designed Emerson product.

These work well for dimming those bright refrigerator, oven, and microwave lights. Our master bedroom is right off the kitchen and we sleep with the door open to allow our elderly dog to come and go. The bright appliance lights were shining into my husband's eyes. These work well--you can cut them to fit or fold them in half for maximum dimming. They do stick with static cling, but I prefer to use blue painter's tape so that I can remove then when I am cooking and then reattach them at night

I bought a new alarm clock for the bedroom but the new clocks LED display was so bright that I had to totally block the face in order to get any sky. I ordered the Dim It and applied two layers. Perfect at night with the lights off. No problem getting to sleep. But the display was so dark it couldn’t be read during the day or with the lights on. Peeled off one layer and gave it another try. Dim enough to get to sleep and can be read during day time. Would really like dimmed to about 1-1/2 layers but one layer will do. Yes I would recommend this product.

I am a light sleeper that has been struggling with insomnia for years. My ideal sleeping condition is to have a pitch dark room.So, the glaring blue and green lights on my cable box, air purifier or electrical cords prevented me from falling asleep, sometimes waking me up in the middle of the night and when that occurred, the lights were like a subtle form of torture preventing me from falling back to sleep. I would find myself getting a sock or trying to tape paper over the lights, which were ineffective band-aids to the problem until I stumbled upon the Dim It ® light dimming sheets. What a brilliant idea coming up with this product. I wish I had thought of it myself!These dimming sheets work like a charm. They are like a film that adheres to your lit devices without using glue or anything leaving a sticky residue. So you can move around for best placement, remove, etc., without gunking up the device with the light. You cut the sheets of film to fit right over the areas you want dimmed. So, the one package I purchased is more than plenty. I have actually only used part of one sheet to dim all of the lights in my bedroom and am no longer bothered by having to hunt for something, anything, in the middle of the night to cover the light. The only drawback is that now I have dimmed the light on my cable box, I cannot see the time, but I would much rather have that, then the bright blue light glaring at me! Plus, it is not great for those of us with insomnia to be watching the clock all night anyway.One last bonus about the dimming sheets is that placing them over something like the cable box, does not prevent me from using the remote that is paired with the cable box, so the film does not obstruct the connection, just the annoying light. Winner!

Oh yeah, this works really well.

While it works, it probably could have been better. But, it's really not the fault of the maker of Dim It sheets... it's the fault of the clock radio maker I used it on. See, the clock radio has a blue LED back-lit background, and black letters. With the dimming sheet on, the clock back lighting set on low, I can barely read the time in a totally darkened room. But, I CAN read it from 3' away. With the clock back lighting set to high, I can read the clock from perhaps 8' away in the dark and can even read it in daylight from perhaps 4' away.So it's satisfactory and I'm happy I bought it because the only other choice was to turn the clock radio on NO back lighting, which then cannot be read at all at night, and can only be read from about 18" away in daytime.The clock radio is really at fault... they should have have had lit letters, not lit background. The background should have been black and the letters lit in blue.

genius. Works great! It dims the stupid factory eye-damaging floodlight digital displays to a tolerable level, and not just for night time. You would think with the computing power and all the features built in to modern appliances, more of them would come with a display dimming feature.
