Backlit laptop keyboard

Hi there. I have a razer blade 2015 and I was wondering what the difference turning the backlight on would do to battery life. Would I see a noticable difference in my laptops battery.

I wouldn't imagine it would make that much of a difference as there's only like 80 of them. Maybe it would cut down on requisite processing power if you're doing complicated lighting effects, but I still doubt it would make that much of a difference. Best way to find out is just to try it.

probably, during idle

 

probably slightly if you're underload

Turning my backlight off yields an additional hour of use so yea
