No backlight but it does come with carry case, banana test lead, and temperature probe.

No backlight, but does have a nice zippered case. Interestingly, it does not come in a cardboard box -- just in the case!

I took it into a dark room and I could not see the screen. I suggest that you go online to Sony and download the owner's Manuel. I don't see anything about a backlight in it, but maybe I just missed it.

Depends on the sellers, mine does not have one. So if you don't see anything about backlit keyboard in the spec, then just assume it does not come with one.

It comes with a handy soft case with a velcro to close the lid. No charge. I haven't used it in practice yet, but really happy to have bought it. Strong light, and I really like to ability to change the intensity of the light.

Nope. Has an LED for Caps Lock and for touchpad "deactivate". But no backlight for keys. Don't type in the dark, anyway it's bad for your eyes :)

It has a keyboard backlight. See p.29 of the user manual to identify the Adaptive function key that controls it.

I never got a chance to put mine on. The computer was stolen. I replaced it once before and believe it is the complete deal. I didn't notice a backlight when I removed it. I still have mine but no where to put it.

No backlight on the keyboard, but the battery life runs at least as long as the other laptops I've used for browsing and docs. You MUST have a laptop cooling fan with it at all times, however. It will overheat without one.

No it does not have a backlight I haven't seen any analog multitesters with a backlight, only digital may have a backlight

The package does contain a carrying case but its fairly small so you have to pack the light just right to get it in there. Since the light works off of 3 AAA batteries there is no charger, but it does come with batteries.

No, there is no backlight. Not on the models I have. Mine are 3+ years old.

No. There is just tube glow. No backlight. Looks cool, tubes are fairly bright. Backlit with some leds sounds cool though.. hmmmm

It comes with everything you mentioned and it HAS a light. The black molded case has Hitachi written on it

It does have a backlight just hold the button at the bottom down for a couple of seconds and it will come on!

Yes there IS a backlight, but it only comes on when you push one of the buttons, and then shuts off in a few moments.

It does have a back light, you do have to turn it on, using the "Light" button, the middle button in top row of buttons on the upper right. I did not realize there is a backlight as I have not needed the light. I always use this in my studio. Your question caused me to look. Thanks for asking this question.

Yes it does. You can adjust the back-lit so it either has no light, minimal brightness, or very bright. Upon a button press the display lights up to allow better viability to what you are doing.
