Not bad, but you weren't the first to do it.
IMO a red or white LED would have better.

Not a bad idea! But saying not to copy your idea or you will seek payment is not legit unless you have the idea patented or patent pending. Without having that, legaly speaking, you wouldnt have a leg to stand on. Just an FYI.
