How does the back-light feature work, can that be turned on without changing a previous setting?

The thermostat has on demand backlight. if you want to turn the backlight on, just touch the screen anywhere. it will not change any setting and the backlight will turn on.

No backlight as far as I can tell but it is instantaneous and continuous in its' readings.

I gave the unit away as a gift, but I believe it was backlit. I tried it before I gave it away. The person I gave it to loves it,by the way.

not sure what you mean by back light, but there are different settings for light and darkness, i took it on vacations to Florida and the pictures turned out great.

You can choose to turn it off or leave it on. The backlight has 3 settings: Active, inactive and standby. Each of the 3 settings has 30 backlight micro adjustments.

Yes, pressing any key, a white backlight turns on. if no key is pressed stays off.

The model I got has a backlight. It seems to be on when it is plugged in. You don't really notice it, until it is dim enough to see it.

I don't see how it would be possible for the lamp to "remember" the brightness level one last had it at. It operates on four clicks: click 1 turns the lamp on (LOW); click 2 medium; click 3 high; click 4 OFF. The next click is click 1, which turns the lamp on (LOW). The design allows for no other operation.

thats actually the backlite on the screen - if it can be turned off the user manual should tell you how --

There is no back light. The display is made of LED (bar & other shape) segments which are always lit.

Yes~when you turn on the computer the backlight will on. I really like that.

There's no back light at all. If it's dark, you need to turn a light on to read it. Since it has an audible alarm, there is ordinarily no need to read the display.

There is no back-light. But if I remember correctly there is an option to keep the display on via the battery. You may or may not be able to read it with just a night light. I have three of these and I really like them; but I have it optioned for the display to go out when there is no light to power the solar panel. And of course I love having the correct time all the time. I've never had any problem with any of the three, but you have to be smarter than a box of rocks to get it set up -- its cheap enough to throw it out if you can't get it going correctly!!

Yes and no. The unit has a backlight mode. The problem is enabling it requires a two key push button sequence. From that point forward pushing any key briefly illuminates the screen. The unit then defaults back to the unlit mode after some inactive period. I have trouble remembering the key sequence and so can not reliably activate the backlight. Altogether I'd say the key controls throughout this unit are very non intuitive.

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.

If you only care about the energy bill, then you want the energy saver set to "high". To my understanding this simply changes the backlight settings and possibly the useless and faulty Auto Light Limiter which attempts to darken the screen during bright scenes on its own.

There is an option to have the keys backlit.... simply press and hold the fn key while tapping the spacebar which will either turn on or off the backlights.
