How does the backlight function? Is there a bulb?

No it doesn't. But the bright colors in the picture will reflect the regular or black lights you have in the room.

You would have to buy a black light seperate. I bought a black light bulb and put it in a lamb though and it didn't seem to really work well. Maybe I just didnt get a bright enough bulb. It is just supposed to glow under the black light.

It looks awesome by its self however you are supposed to have a blacklight (yes a bulb) and a dark room helps.

No, it just glows a little when under a black light which you will have to get separately

there is a " brain box " that comes with the light. it has a countdown timer on it for bulb replacement. also, in a dark room, you can see the u.v. light on by looking at the ends of the physical unit itself. a hint of blue will show in a couple of places. very nice unit. very satisfied. cheers.

It's not backlit. But it has not been too big a hassle. Works great and connected directly without any programming

Sorry, it does not have the keyboard backlight. They are otherwise in a mint condition, just like a new one.

Mine doesn't. I don't know where the confusion is, but mine is clearly a standard LCD with NO backlight. I've seen nothing on the web page or in the instructions to suggest that it does, and I'm sure that would be a selling feature. It doesn't need a lot of light, but if you have to use one in the dark I'd suggest getting one that specifically says it is backlit.

Backlighting is pretty good, most of the keys are easy to see in the dark. It is a function button that toggles it on or off and it stays that way as long as it is charged.

I have been told that your can turn on the Light sensor which controls backlighting by pressing Fn+A to on/off AI light sensor. Have to dig my keyboard out to try it tomorrow. Good luck

I don't remember a backlight nor what the center button did. Not trying to be nasty but I found the contraption practically useless. It kept time and date. I have a watch. Nothing else appeared to be remotely reliable.

Yes, there is definitely an on/off switch for the backlight - it's above the delete button. Btw been happy with this product so far.

No, the display is not backlit. It seemed to me that I read someplace that there was the possibility of back lighting, but it must have been wishful thinking.

It does have a back light but you only can see it if no other light is available.

No. Mine does not seem to have a backlight on the display in any mode or range selection I could try.

I realize this answer is very late, but in case anyone else has this problem - there's a button to turn the backlight on and off, it is off by default. If it doesn't have that button I would suggest returning it directly to Amazon and ordering a new one.

Oh i see what you mean now with the missing button. I just looked on mine and that button is black. When the backlight is on it looks like it is not lit up.

No it's not back lit. I am sorry but I don't know where my instructions are. I have tried it with several combinations and it's not apparent what it's function is.
