Backlit keyboard

A backlit keyboard, also called an illuminated keyboard or backlit gaming keyboard, is a keyboard that features lights inside the keyboard. The lights provide illumination behind and around the keys so they visible in low light or dark environments. The light source is often composed of mini LED light bulbs for energy efficiency and increased brightness. Backlit gaming keyboards are popular amongst computer gamers, but can also be used for any other computer work. Below is a picture of a multicolor backlit gaming keyboard from G.SKILL.

How to enable and disable a backlit keyboard

The backlit feature is often activated by touching the keys or around the edge of the keyboard. The lights automatically turn off after a short period when the keys or keyboard edges are not touched. Automatically turning off the lights helps to conserve battery power, extending the life of the batteries between charges. Laptops and desktop backlit keyboards can also have special keys or FN keys to turn the backlit on and off permanently and may allow the color to be changed. The special key or FN key to press on a keyboard differs by keyboard or laptop manufacturer. Tip Most new PC laptops can adjust the keyboard backlighting in the Windows Mobility Center. On Dell laptops its often Fn + F10 or only F10 . With Lenovo laptops, the hidden key to adjust the backlit keyboard is Fn + Spacebar .

How much does a backlit gaming keyboard cost?

Backlit gaming keyboards are more expensive than standard keyboards, usually costing $90 or more. They are available as wired and wireless. Wireless models require batteries to work and may include a USB cable to plug the keyboard into the computer to charge the batteries. Many keyboard manufacturers make backlit gaming keyboards, including Corsair, G.SKILL, Logitech, and RAZER.

Introduction

To a certain degree finding academic sources is the easy part. The effective use of the sources you've found is arguably the most important aspect of research. This guide, developed by the Instruction Team at Tomlinson Library, can help you as you determine how to utilize the sources you've found. The material in this tutorial is designed to be followed sequentially using the navigation tabs at the left of the screen (at the top of the screen in mobile displays) or the navigation links at the bottom of each page. However if there is a specific topic that you wish to explore on its own, you're welcome to jump directly there. Some pages have short activities associated with them. They are constructed in such a way that invites you to spend some time either reflecting on or practicing the concept laid out on that particular page. In addition, there are two short quizzes you can use to gauge your familiarity with either MLA or APA citation style. If you have any questions feel free to contact us using any of the methods on the "Need Help?" tab at the end of the navigation tabs.
