Is the keyboard supposed to light up while it's charging? Also, does a keyboard light stay lit while it's turned on and in use?

It does stay lit while charging with a red light. A blue light blinks when it comes on, but it doesn't stay lit.

I believe there's a red LED for charging and a blue one to indicate the status of the Bluetooth connection

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.

There is a small light on the keyboard that lights up while charging but my keyboard is not backlit.

I do think it lights up while charging. It does not stay lit while in use. If you are having difficulty, charge the keyboard overnight and re-sync it in the morning by turning on the blue-tooth on iPad and keyboard. Press the tiny black button on the keyboard next to the Bluetooth On switch. Your iPad should then recognize the device! Hope this helps. :)

There is no lighting in the keyboard at all, however, the screen is brightly lit so I have no problem at all seeing the keyboard. Hope this answers your question.

Is the keyboard charged? It usually has a slight charge but you might have to re-charge it first.

Hello! I absolutley love my keyboard. I actually haven't charged since I first got it a few weeks ago and it still works. So no u don't have to charge it often. It jus comes with a usb cord so you'd have to charge it with a computer unless u have the usb adapter that plugs into the wall. My phone charger has the piece that goes into the wall so that's what I use. Hope this helps

It was charged when it arrived. In fact, I have never put any effort into charging it. I just leave it with the solar panel facing up whenever I close it, and it has always been ready to use. It uses either the natural light or the light from a lamp to charge. I am very happy with this keyboard!

You really do not need to charge it very often. I charge mine maybe once a month. I also don't use it every day though. Maybe 3 times a week for not much longer than 2-3 hours at a time. So it really all depends on your usage of the keyboard.

I have only charged my keyboard occasionally. After the initial charge, by connecting the cable to any USB port on your computer, it has a fairly long operating time. I hope this helps.

I think you must have an issue with your keyboard. I've had mine for a few weeks now and I use the keyboard all the time, have even left it on overnight and I've not charged it since the initial charge.

Hi, the keyboard is back lit. The battery life is reasonably good just over a couple of hours.

I have charged my keyboard maybe once since I got it in January- Its very infrequent and we use it OFTEN. Good luck with your decision.

the keyboard has to be turned on and connected to your tablet with Bluetooth. This is an indication that your hooked up.It must be ready to go, when you start typing the backlight comes on the top of the keyswhen you stop typing the light goes off in about 2 sec. If your not connected with Bluetooth,the keyboard doesn't light up at all.

The back light stays on as long as the keyboard is plugged in... It doesn't turn off... And you can customize it

The light is suppose to turn on automatically when your computer is on and the keyboard is connected . If light doesn't turn on then that means the keyboard is probably defective, hope this helps

Yes keyboard needs to be charged. To fully charge it takes 1 hour. Charging cable is supplied when you bought the leyboard

It has a battery that needs to be charged. hen it is fully charged the light will be white on both the keyboard and tablet. I received few instructions with mine.

Hi Ron, The first thing I would do is make sure the keyboard is fully charged. If the red light is on then you need to recharge the keyboard. If the light is blue (charged) I would make sure the bluetooth feature is enabled. You would do that by checking your settings. Once those two things are working properly you should be able to use it again if it worked before. Good luck with that!

my phone definitely lights up in the dark, and it lights up really well so that I can read. that is the screen. the keyboard also lights up. I have the LGL55C m odel. It does shut off but just touching a button brings it right back on.
