Is there a way to manually dim the screen?

Yes. You can. It's a pain. There's a brightness option in the same settings menu where the option to chance the screen color is.

The only way to dim would be to use a low voltage inline dimmer, you can try a lutron dimmer switch but I don't believe it work because it is not a damnable driver

Simply touch the screen. You can also change the settings to change the screen contrast and time to stay on.

Yes, there is a button next to the On/Off button that when pressed will make the screen brighter.

There is no way I found to "dim" the alarm level. There is a adjustable level control but this only controls whether the strobe light only or alarm only or both activate.

when you turn it on quickly go to settings then scroll down to display. tap on that and you should see brightness and turn off the automatic brightness. then adjust the slider bar to what you like. I would go more to the left because this feature is a battery saver, but in order to read whats on the screen your going to have to sacrifice some battery durability.

If you mean turn it off as opposed to reducing the light, yes, there is a button on the unit. This Rite Lite does not dim.

No. it does not have a dimmer function, just manual on/off and of course presets for auto. on/off.

No, there are modes that dim slowly in and out but the brightness can't be adjusted

I don't think so. It's a problem for me, too. I just keep a dark cloth across the front. It's a shame; I do wish there was a way to dim it.

No. The dimming feature is strictly manual operation only. There is an on/off switch for the blue and white light and each has a knob to manually dim the light.

There is a function key on both sides of the keyboard on the bottom, and controls on the F Keys at the top to adjust screen brightness, volume, and keyboard back light. You can make it as bright as you want, and turn it off completely.

Try this: go to "settings" (upper-left of the arrows)....use right arrow to get to Brightness, further right arrows to adjust,use OK, then "EXIT".

I'm not sure what type of dimming it has, but it definitely seems to be changing the brightness level on it's own, for some reason. I'd like to disable this feature, if I could figure out how. I turned off "Dynamic contrast" and "Dynamic backlight", but this didn't help.

I have the fan connected to a light switch, so you may be able to dim it using a dimmer switch. The pull cord for the light just turns it on and off.

Out of the box, the screen is somewhat dim, and there is an automatic dimming feature connected with energy management that can make it quite dark. The brightness can be adjusted through Windows settings. The battery won't last as long, but it's a trade off. My screen is adjusted for full brightness now and is great. I love this laptop.

There is no "Auto-dimming" however if my memory serves me correct there is a feature to change between a "day" and "night" mode. I believe this was kinda a step filled process though and not just a click on one button.Still it was a good deck for my Jeep and at the price there isn't really anything better.
