Sup folks,
Did a little mod to my Atom+. Pretty simple and nice for at night. Drilled a small hole in place of the white painted dot for the volume indicator. The light from the back light ring shines through and gives a nice "illuminated" volume indicator.

Been thinking about doing the exact same thing to my non + atom for years now as the dial is quite hard to read in low light, perhaps I'll finally remember to bring my drill home today and get the job done.

Neat mod. I might try something similar, though probably starting with the smallest drill at hand, plus perhaps some thin white paper backing or something.
A little liquid silicon blob assisted by some manipulating water on the finger manages to create a tidy little silicon cap over the inside of the hole for a cool soft illumination .
