V3i backlit display

[Viddy]

I had about 1/2 hour before dark and decided to take my V3i out to a local little league park to detect around the areas where people sit and watch the games. It's usually a clad-fest, which is fun when you only have a limited time.
This was the first time I really had the V3i out not in the middle off the day or in sunlight.
I will admit that it is absolutely amazing! I attached a few pics. One is of it when it was just starting to get dark, and the backlit helped out, and another picture of it at night. I was impressed! The HD screen was sooo nice but even the buttons are made of not backlit, but of a kind of glow-in-the-dark, which also helped!
Anyone as impressed as me about this? I know there are backlit screens out there, and I have them on my other detectors, but, this was impressive!

Its a great screen. I hit the parks in full sun shine and the screen does not get washed out. Whites did a great job w this detector.

Day or night the v3i screens look great, but I hear ya,its definetly an advantage getting to c the screens in pitch black

I am in deep problem with my back lit I beleave I hire the number and I lower them and I cant get it to shine in the dark. I have the bulb icon on the screen Should I be worryed? Since I never was caught in the dark I really had no knowledge of a possible malfunktion. if it wasn't for this post I wouldn't be curious to test it out in the front of my home. Thanks for any aid.
