Hi leezy,
I'm sort of puzzled why you would need to darken the windows of a
DIGITAL darkroom, but I'll put that aside.
For darkening the windows of the darkroom, I use an opaque white cloth
available from fabric and decorating shops; it's called "blackout
cloth." Its nominal use is as a lining
Roc-Lon TLC Blackout Drapery liner.

If you wish, I can send you one to look at before you buy. I haven't
finished my darkroom here so it's just lying around...

You shouldn't need to set your exposure meter so low.
If you use your meter at a normal setting and find out what exposures work
best for the readings given, you won't need to use such extreme settings
which can make things awkward depending on the meter you are using. After
