A full 25% of all males on this planet are red/green colorblind. So when some device like this switched color, to us it's really just a matter of amber or amber. Can anyone out there ever thing to go from Blue to Red? Yellow to Blue? White to Red? At least, those combination would show some type of change to us 25%.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Asher]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brighthandle glows green to indicate unlockedness]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</guid><description><![CDATA[Eh, if only they'd make lightsabers this way...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brighthandle glows green to indicate unlockedness]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</guid><description><![CDATA[Asher - I was going to comment on the same thing.

The only other real alternatives are off/on and steady/flashing (which they probably should have used).  But you destroyed most of your credibility with that "25%" claim.  Colorblind males make up 5% of the total population, so only about 10% of the male population is colorblind.<br><br>http://waynesword.palomar.edu/colorbl1.htm]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Richard]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brighthandle glows green to indicate unlockedness]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</guid><description><![CDATA[should they glow the opposite colour on the inside?

It is between 4-7%. My information was incorrect. It just seems like a simple fix. Blue and Red. Since we can see a variation on both, and no matter what they do not look the same so we can know one is open one is closed. Simple enough. But two colors that are spectrographically so similar is just a poor call.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Asher]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brighthandle glows green to indicate unlockedness]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</guid><description><![CDATA[http://brighthandle.com/prod.htm]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[swe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brighthandle glows green to indicate unlockedness]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/brighthandle-glows-green-to-indicate-unlockedness/</guid><description><![CDATA[The battery powered model only lights up when you lock the door, so that could be the 'colorblind man's alternative'...
