    Green is the easiest colour in the visible spectrum for the eye to perceive.
    Blue is associated with porn and everyone knows that makes you blind.
    The blue ones should come with a health warning.

    Yeah maybe but the green lights getting lost in the reflection of the BLUE shifted daylight off the glossy surface of the indicator, so you need to stop it happening or change the light frequency to one that compliments the interference.

    perhaps a broad spectrum AR coating to minimise the effect?
    A small phase shift works wonders!
    Sounds like you know the CE diagram somewhat Ken?

    Me neither if I was honest. I look at black body graphs as being a datum point only with little correlation in real world colour management. Pure math vs applied math really. I just spend more time than I'd like to calibrating colour systems just to make some dickhead's prints look like his monitor. It starts to rub off.

    Hmmm........perhaps it's just averting its gaze.

    The reason I asked is that with the roof down in bright sunshine I never have a problem reading the sat nav screen until I wear a light coloured shirt, then it's game over. Incidence and reflection angles.

    Combine that with the polarising filter on it's surface with my sunglasses and it might as well be switched off.
