Sorry to have left this dormant for so long.
Running eject in either of the ways suggested still leaves the light on
my particular key turned on.

I might imagine how windows turns the LED off on
unmount. Try "eject /dev/sdX", where sdX is your USB storage, after you
unmount it. Be careful, especially if you have SATA (or SCSI) discs in
your system or if you use libata for PATA discs not to eject the wrong
one...
If there is only one USB disk connected:
# eject /dev/disk/by-path/*usb*:0
Provided you let udev create links for you. BTW, the /dev/disk/by-id/
symlinks are nice for static mount points in /etc/fstab.
After a disk was mounted, eject also accepts the mountpoint as parameter
and will unmount the disk before it tries to eject it.
