MikeMan 0 Posted July 8, 2009 Is there supposed to be a backlight on the LCD for the LaserPoint? I just switched back to using my Refine for a larger job, and realized how much easier it is to read the Refine's backlit display. Thanks, Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted July 8, 2009 The LP LCD display is lit, but not as much as the Refine series. Also helps if you are looking at the display at eye level or up at it, instead of down at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeMan 0 Posted July 8, 2009 Thanks Ken, I'd say the backlight is definitely out on my LP... I just went back out to the shop and turned out all the lights with my LP turned on. In the dark, all I can see is the output from my laser. Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted July 8, 2009 Yea- it is possible it went out completely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HowardI Posted July 10, 2009 Ken, you've been away too long! There is NOT a backlight on the LP display. Unfortunately. I was looking into this to see if I can add one but they don't come with one.

Guest round2racing Posted August 3, 2009 OMG ken, you are hilarious. ;) Cutme, that little light is a great idea. I have a hard time seeing my display too. I bet that light will help.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
