A little light from LEDs on a Fan?

I have a couple fans from my PC case I am planning to use to help ventilate my grow box....

The fans have these little LEDs to light up the fan and make it look cool - If those LEDs are on 24/7 even during my 12/12 dark cycle, will it screw up my plants? Will they think it is still light out and stop flowering?

There's just 4 small LEDs per fan and I will have 2 fans. There's not much light but it is a little.

What do you guys think???

definitely cover or remove them somehow. I've heard of people getting light poisoning from their digital timers and clocks and such. LEDs are growing lights, I wouldn't risk it.

Yeah but these are like .5 lumens each probably and are different spectrums and colors - seriously??

I can't cover them up and I'd rather not cut the wires.

If y'all say cut the wires, I will, but I'd rather not. I'd like to hear someone who has LED lights in their fans and has had no issues. :)

Anyone with contrasting info??

Going once... twice... :)

(otherwise I'm cutting the LEDs out and that will be the end of them) :)
