Just thought, would dying the sleeping pod black work?

can't find any spray and the fabric is quite expensive BUT if you have room you could remove his pod and use a black out tent:

Just had a thought, we used to used for my sons bedroom a portable blackout blind called 'baabaa blackout blind'!  think its from same people who make the babysleeping bags.  We got ours on ebay and if u get a second hand one shouldnt cost too much.

Basically just a huge blackout material which attaches to windows with suction cups but sure u could adapt it and maybe velco it or similar to pod?

Good luck and hope u find something, those early mornings are a killer i know!

I have before : Purchased some "Balckout" material from blind shop ( maybe Dunhelm MIll also have it or similar) and simply punched some holes in the material at the top and then threaded the sleeping pod hooks through this first then attach to tent at the top - it then simply "drapes" down over the outside of the sleeping pod, we had several pieces and it worked well.
