Oh yes - I can vouch for the light-blocking ability of Robs Velux blinds.

First time I stayed over there I was awake at the sparrows fart because of
the searchlight directly in my face - second time (once thay'd been fitted)
I think it was almost 11 when I surfaced because I kept waking up and
thinking it was still nighttime!
