I have used the vOICe in the past to check if lights etc. are on, and it
also has a colour filter mode to let you only scan for certain colours, and
while it needs either a computer with a webcam or a suitable mobile phone to
run on, it's free:

Hi All;
Here is a tip I ran across on another list that I thought might come in
handy for a lot of us.
Dealing with lights on your router,modem or other device.
hi folks, thought of this a while back, and then saw this post and
realized
I was right, it will work, so passed it along! elf ----- Original

For Lisa and others who may be concerned with knowing the status of
indicator lights on a router or modem, I can determine which lights are
on,
off, or blinking with a light probe. Independent Living aids has one for
twenty-three dollars and change. They work well for a number of things. I
use my probe to tell me about the lights on various cooking devices such
as
a rice cooker, foreman grill, and many other things. It will find lights
on
those little cube shaped power supplies that plug into the wall; the
blinking light on the victor stream; the light on the computer speakers;
and a host of other things I can't bring to mind just now. Just a
thought.
Lois Goodine.
Hope this helps. Take care.
Mike
