Does having a spell "equipped" affect sneaking?

This is doing my head in a bit.

 

I'm playing a sneaky thief, yet the game insists I have a glowing ball of light in my left hand AT ALL FECKING TIMES. I can't backstab people as I'm lit up like an xmas tree.

 

The only way I can backstab people is to go through the menu system and unequip the spell. Which kind of ruins the immersion.

 

I hope either:

Having a spell "equipped" doesn't effect sneaking

or

There's a button that I can't find to turn the damned thing off.

 

Any ideas?

 

I can't even hotkey another dagger to that hand, because hotkeys only seem to apply to right hand.

I'm not using a light spell, the problem is I I use a spell the only way I can unequip it is via the menu, so everytime I start sneaking I have to traverse the menu

 

Favourites system doesn't help at all, in fact that's part of the problem, with weapons, if I press 1 my sword is equipped, if i press 1 again it's unequipped. With spells, you can't unequip them via favourites

The best thing to do would be to hotkey the spell you use to say left hand 2, then hotkey a dagger or weapon to left hand 3. When you want to unequip your spell, just press 3, and then 3 again. I think that should do it, but am at work so cant test it

Im assuming you are a pc player. To unequip a spell just access your favorites and click on the spell with the mouse button it is assigned to. It should unequip it and take out your fist, or you can assign a weapon to that mouse button in the same way. Hope that helps you!

Cheers, that seems to be the easiest way.
