how do you make the backlight brighter

The keyboard has three brightness settings, off, low, and high brightness. You can cycle through the setting by pressing the lightbulb button on the bottom right. You can also change color by holding the lightbulb button and pressing the up or down arrows.

If you push the lightbulb button on the bottom (right hand side) of the keyboard twice it makes it a little brighter.

It only has two brightness settings I would recommend changing the backlight color instead because some colors are brighter than others. To change the brightness level just hit the light button and to change the color hold down the light button and press the up or down arrow.

when you turn it on quickly go to settings then scroll down to display. tap on that and you should see brightness and turn off the automatic brightness. then adjust the slider bar to what you like. I would go more to the left because this feature is a battery saver, but in order to read whats on the screen your going to have to sacrifice some battery durability.

I finally found it!! It's under Intel Graphics. Go to Intel Graphics Control Panel (should be in your Task Bar/Tray to the bottom right) - pick Graphics Properties - then you will see near the top of the resulting screen two links Display Settings and Color - pick Color - then you will be given a chance to make the colors brighter or dimmer (Brightness, Contrast and Gamma). Think this is what you are looking for.

There is only one brightness setting. The only way to change it would be to install a dimmer.

Try turning the brightness down and the contrast up and also adjust the color so it looks as real as possible. Also you can change the energy saver setting to make to lighter or darker. Offhand my settings on dynamic mode are:Contrast: 95Brightness: 32Color: 64Sharpness: 90Energy Saver: Level 1

I gave the unit away as a gift, but I believe it was backlit. I tried it before I gave it away. The person I gave it to loves it,by the way.

Follow the instructions. Or Push the black (or RED) triangular looking Button. And PULL on the the Plastic Side where the light shines through. It took me a bit to figure it out, But all is well now. USE AAA batteries

SO I got one of these for my wife...its a simple device and works as expected..the issue is it it TOO BRIGHT at night. We have the dimmer set to mode 3 with -15 level and ON. and it is still WAYYYY too bright at night. Other than powering it off or covering the touchscreen with non-adhesive window tint any suggestions?

you could try going to Menu&gt;Picture&gt;Gaming&gt;More (at bottom for options)&gt;Color Temperature&gt; & change this to what you prefer. Also, maybe just changing the Picture Setting to something other than Gaming. The Picture gets almost 2x as bright when using this option.

You can adjust the color and brightness of the display. In standard mode it's too bright at night. Switch to red or green and it's fine (but hard to read in sunlight).

If you scroll down to advanced setting and open it you will see a dynamic backlight and light sensor. If you turn these two off you will be able to adjust the brightness manually. As long as they are on you have no way to control brightness.

I just recently had my screen replaced and the technician said the install went great but (and there always seems to be a but) he is having trouble getting the backlight to work. The screen is on but dark. He is trying to figure out a solution.

Perhaps you could get an LED bulb. A 20 Watt LED bulb can give you the brightness of a 100 watt incandescent.

I used speaker wire light gets dimmer after halfway unless you attach wires to opposite end. But still bright enough to hurt yoir eyes if you stare at 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.

I agree the backlite is faint. It is not a problem for me but, I definitely agree it is not very bright.
