You can just cover it with black electric tape first, makes it easier if you'd like to revert. Painting it with a black marker should also result to make it fainter, if you still wish to know if it's getting usb power. Btw, if you're gaming these mouses are greatly enhanced on acceleration response by overclocking usb ports to 500MHz.

Lul wut.
`Overclock' your USB ports?
USB is USB. It's a standard. If you change the signalling speed, no USB device will be able to talk to your computer any more.
If you're talking about increasing the USB polling rate, then yes, if you're using a mouse-based game it might make things smoother. However we're talking about increasing the polling rate from default 125Hz to 500Hz or 1000Hz -- note
hertz, not megahertz (!!). This means it will be polling every 1ms at 1000Hz instead of polling every 8ms at 125ms.
But that's just part of the operating system's USB HID driver's software implementation (under Linux, modprobe usbhid mousepoll=1 for 1ms/1000Hz polling rate). No `overclocking' involved.
Personally I've never really had the need to check if my mouse is receiving `USB power'. Either the port supplied +5V or it doesn't. If the device is failing, check dmesg.
