I have the red version of this, its exactly the same except for the color of the lights, they stay on if your computer is on stand-by but should turn off if it is in sleep mode

It does if you put it into manual sleep mode (when you click sleep), but not when the screen times out.

No. The only lights on the keyboard aere the "Num Lock" and the "Caps Lock" that light up red when they are on.

The keyboard light should go off after about 30 seconds of inactivity. Once you touch the keys the light should come back on.

Yes. Even better, it does it automatically when keyboard is connected. If the keyboard has gone to sleep, the on screen key board will appear. Just click on a key 2-3 times, keyboard reconnects and the onscreen keyboard dissappers. The keyboard goes to sleep after about 15 minutes. This applies to both iPhone and iPad.

The keyboard goes to sleep (power saving mode) after 10 minutes of inactivity. It takes 2 keystrokes to wake from power saving mode. When not asleep, the keyboard responds instantly.

Suzannah, I wondered the same thing. As far as I can tell the light comes on at first on both occasions but then shuts off. I mentioned this in my review there should be some indicators showing keyboard on, charging or needs charging. I also found that if there is a small lapse of time in typing, the keyboard goes to sleep and it takes 3 to 5 seconds to reconnect.

It goes to sleep when the computer does and wakes up when the computer does. There is no on/off switch.

It should still provide power to the mouse while in sleep mode. As long as your computer itself is turned off, it is powering the USB ports, even though your monitor may be dark. The computer itself is still "on."

negative, it does not.... I actually keep this laptop shut, hooked up to a large tv and use a backlit keyboard, almost like it is a desktop.

Does the mouse sleep/idle when not in use if the power switch is not turned off?

The keyboard's back light is easily turned on and off by using the "Scroll Lock" button.The mouse has no button to turn the LED on or off, so it is constantly on.I have no clue about the warranty, but that doesn't matter.

My keyboard only requires a battery change about once a year, I believe the keyboard powers down when you turn your computer off, but I'm not 100% sure.

No, the keyboard is not lighted. I've never had the need for it. The screen has a variable brightness that illuminates the keyboard well enough with low ambient light.

The lights turn off when you shut your computer off completely. Putting your pc on sleep does not turn off the lights.

Yes, the keyboard is backlit, with the option to adjust the brightness of the backlight. You can turn it off, or have it on any of 3 brightness settings.

You can turn the back lighting off. I did not have any issues with the keyboard in the bios. If your computer still powers your USB port when off it is the motherboard not the keyboard. If the computer is off and it is still light up then you can simply unplug and replug and it will go off and stay off.

The only things that light up on this keyboard are green lights for Num Lock, Caps Lock and Scroll Lock when they are engaged. Otherwise, no.
