Does this compass illuminate at night?

Yes, it has a glow in the dark bezel, just leave it in bright light for a little while and it should be good to go

While you may need a full moon or flashlight to see this compass at night, it does everything else I need to point me in the right direction for flagging trees in a straight line. I especially like the bubble thing that helps level the compass. I like the ability to line up a straight line at least two different ways. I have ordered, used, and lost more compasses in the past 2 years than I care to mention. This compass is my very favorite and the easiest to use.

Yes it does. We were going to leave it on at night bc we hav small kids but it was to bright to do that for us.

it has a sensor and turns itself on. it runs out of charge during the night. if you don't expect too much from these lights, you should not be let down, careful when assembling. top is fragile. steve

No, but even at night its not distractingly bright. There is a newer version that has a safety cutoff built in if you lean out that's better than this model. Of course it costs more. If you're running a bit fat for safeties sake then this is a good buy

It's bright enough to see easily during the day, so I expect it would very bright at night. They've removed the flashing feature due to customer feedback so it remains on steadily when your device is on the pad. "Customizing" it with black tape should solve any night time issues.

I have not used it at night but it works well at dusk. Cant beat it for the price. You want something that works at night go gen 3 night vision or thermal, but $$$

I have no idea. It is bright enough to be seen but not bright enough to light up a dark trail.

Yes - the keyboard lights up around the keys. Works great for any level of darkness.

Hey Sonja. Yes, it does. As far as I know the only source that can be "darkened" is the radio.

Not that I've found so far. It does have a back light for when you need a little extra light, like for at night, but it only lasts for a few seconds then goes out.

Only when it's dark. It's been well over a year and I have just recently changed the batteries for the first time. I have them all (4) mounted outside at strategic positions around my house. Excellent product.

Yes, the lighing still shows. Not quite as bright as it would otherwise, but it works great in the dark.

No, it has just motion and sensitivity lights at night. It did mention that you can set it to stay all the time at night, but I couldn't get mine to do it.

Yes. It stays on at night. Whether it will satisfy as a night light depends on how bright a light you need.

Nope, only when it decides it's dark enough. Though I believe it's configurable as an option

Yes. The 2 lights in the middle come on at dusk. When it detects motion the big bottom light comes on.

The time will continue to glow at night, but there are four brightness levels you can set for the time. The lowest level of brightness is very dimmed.
