Thanks for looking into this. I hoped it would be an easy fix and you'd
have made my joggler almost perfect. Unfortunately I'm an awkward old
sod, and I know almost off won't be acceptable at nighttime. But turning
it off at the plug will save a bit of power :)

The vu change looks complicated, changing the skin took me an hour to
work out :) but I hope to give it a go later this week.
