    Hi,

    I was watching a movie on my z70v but I found that the super bright leds on the front were really annoying.

    I can cover them up and then it's fine but is there a way to turn off the lights? Strangely, my bluetooth led was lit and I know that the z70v does not have bluetooth.

    Any ideas?

    Felix

    Yea, the bluetooth is quite amusing, its there and flashes but nothing happens. I was at CanadaSys the other day and I saw the BT led flash, I was like, THIS THING HAS BT? But alas, too good to be true ;)

    I really doubt you can turn them off, duct tape works :p

    1. obtain a small tack size nail.
    2. obtain a quality hammer
    3. gently place tack sized nail on light
    4. lightly tap tack sized nail with quality hammer.

    no more lights.
