Pretty common when they cheap out on installing a proper uv filter over the LEDs. I have an RGB fan as the exhaust and it lights up the whole room at the end of the cycle. It's plastic kinda opaque blades so it should block a lot of UV.

it's ridiculous that something added to the device which in no way enhances performance may be blinding people lol.

the stupid burns, literally, apparently.

Honestly I felt the same way until I got some RGB stuff. It really is just superficial, but it's a vibe. Trying to rationalize purely aesthetic decisions would be stupid.

Tbh easy fix for problem: disable all rbg or buy parts without it.

Is this black anodized aluminum? It's really hard to not just see it as light actively shining on it. A number of black anodized bike parts have turned bronze on me
