Is the screen backlit? Or is there A button to make it light up?

screen is back-lit--the timer is technically always on so one issue is that the go button can get activated while in storage.

No, the screen isn't backlit, and there is no way to make it light up, at least as far as I can tell. The numbers are kind of dim; I think people with poor eyesight would have a problem reading them. I got this stopwatch because it was the least expensive and simplest I could find, but it doesn't have the niceties of a more expensive one. It suits my needs, but you might want to look for something better. Good luck!

There is no light on it and I wish I had paid attention to that! It's easy to see as the numbers are big but hard when it's in a dark room. It's a good stopwatch for kids but I ended up getting an alternate one with a light from Amazon as well!

no lights on keyboard, screen is super bright so I don't have a problem with not seeing the keys in the dark

No, the screen doesn't light up, and you cannot see it in the dark. I will rephrase, my screen doesn't light up, and I cannot see it in the dark.

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.

No, for this particular one the screen is not lighted. I chose it because my Husband is retired and sits by a window during the day where there is good sunlight. I did not even consider this feature when I bought it. I can tell you he finds it challenging and is really enjoying it.

no, it is not backlit....I actually use it with a monitor and wireless keyboard. Performance has been good....knock on wood!

Not quite. It has one light for the windows button (which on mine was leaking thru the LCD) and pretty dim. The back and search buttons did not have it.

No! The buttons illuminate when pushed, or light up through the sequence of a system macro, but no back lighting.

Yes, there is a large oval shaped button in lower center portion labled "LIGHT" which you press lightly. It then lights up the entire screen with a soft orange-white light.

Yes there IS a backlight, but it only comes on when you push one of the buttons, and then shuts off in a few moments.

I think your asking about the backlit board? To turn the keyboard light on and off hit the f5 button.

Yes. When you pick it up it lights up. The only thing that doesn't light up are the buttons at the very top.

Yes. Backlit. I like the slide up. Feels solid. Have to hold onto it or u can slide it too far and comes off. Cannot comment on lift up.

No light button, but sure don't think it needs one. I am very happy with mine.

No, the screen is no backlighted. But the characters are good sized and it is black on white. Still visible unless you are in a very low light/dark location.

none of the buttons are lit. Only the screen and it supports four buttons at a time with several screen configurations

No, the keypad does not light up. It is really a very basic box. No gimmicks, no frills.
