Marc,
Please also note that the conventional solution of adding an adjustable
resister in series for dimming the light will not work with leds, as the
voltage to drive the led is quite specific and is different for each
available color. The correct way to dim leds is change the duty cycle with a
chopper, like a motor control for a PM motor. Of course, that method also
works with conventional filiment lamps as well.

I find some of the lights on a Sea Ray boat (2006), SmartCraft
instruments etc rather annoyingly bright in the night, especially the
Compass and the stereo remote control.
How can I dim them further, and possibly change the blue (!)
illumination to another color? Has anyone modified it to use LEDs, eg
red or green instead of the dreadful blue?

TIA

Marc
