Interesting to read the comments on the Rpi forums about touchscreen back-light lifetime....... 20000 Hours confirmed on the official page...(about 2.3 years if left on all the time)

I have changed the brightness setting in the MoOde system config from the default 255 to 100 and not noticed other than a minor dimming so happy with that...
When I first read the specs I heard the Bladerunner 'Tears in rain' monologue...
I would be interested to know if the MoOde 'blank screen' option actually switches off the backlight as some posts on the Rpi forums say is configurable in software or if it just blanks the output ???
Anyone have details on this ?
