does the clock have a back light so it can be read at any time?

Yes you can read it day or night. It emits a green light as do the clocks on my microwave, and stove.

Yes and you can see it easily. It's also easy to set in case you unplug it by accident. You can also program it to brew, although we haven't used that feature more than a few times.

No, the clock is not illuminated. I can see it well enough to set the time-of-day and auto-start time. If I'm in the kitchen and need to know the time, I glance at the big clock on the face of the stove. For the price, this is a great coffee maker.

Instructions for setting clock do come with clock. Check Manufacturer's info for details.

Yes it does have a clock. Read bob's answer to see how to set it. The DSP button is on the far right of the station select row of buttons, with a 0 above of it.

No, it's not backlit. It is a great scale however. A really good item to own.

There is NO light associated with the clock. There is no light to keep you awake at night and no light to run down the batteries. You can keep your eyes closed as you press the large button to hear the accurate time or date.

The clock is not backlight at all. Meaning in the dark, you would not be able to read the clock.

Hi: No. When the unit is off, it is completely dark. Since the original unit in the car (18 years okay), had no backlight to the clock, got use too it and just put in a small travel clock that avails the time day or night.

I believe there is a clock, but it does not display in standby, which is odd. In fact, you have to press a button to display the clock, so I rarely saw it or utilized it.

Back light is toggled on/off with a button on the keyboard. As far as I know, there is no way to time it. You can customize the colors and switch them with the profile and macro keys.

There is a single source of light behind the number-9. It is a relatively low level light with a brightness level that allows reading of time in dark room. Because the light source is behind the number-9, the left-half region of the clock face is illuminated more than the right-half region of the clock face. The backlight is adequate for reading of time in a dark room, which is all that is required, in general. This is a great old style clock.

I have been using the unit with the usb drive to play low-volume audio non stop and never thought about the clock. Now that you asked, I checked the unit and I do not see that there is a clock.

Yes it has a backlight. You choose between 5, 10, 30 seconds, or 1 minute in the menu.

Yes. The clock only is displayed while plugged in. Yet it keeps the current.

No it doesn't. But there is a capacitor that can retain the clock for several minutes. Smarter: no battery to change.

Yes, you can set the back light to different levels. I set mine on low and I can read it very clearly at night. Hope this helps. Herb

No it doesn't. There's no built in back light. Sorry. It only displays the name of the song and who's it by.
