The device features both a LED (light actuator) and ALS (light sensor.)
Steps to reproduce
Refer to the layout
Locate D3 and Q1
Sample from the ALS
Expected result
LED output does not interfere with ALS sampling.
Actual result
It's unclear if interference occurs between the LED and ALS, but according to logic this is likely the case.
Severity level
This is low priority because project requirements state neither LED nor ALS.

## Steps to reproduce
1. Refer to the layout
1. Locate D3 and Q1
1. Sample from the ALS
## Expected result

## Actual result
It's unclear if interference occurs between the LED and ALS, but according to logic this is likely the case.
## Severity level
This is **low priority** because project requirements state neither LED nor ALS.

This is low priority because project requirements state neither LED nor ALS.
Consider adding a low profile (third) tactile switch next to the ALS which blocks light coming from the LED.
The solution to bug #172 in commit
9083169solves this problem as well, by coincidentally placing a part in the path between the ALS and the LED.
