Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Saitek Eclipse Backlit Keyboard - Red LED ( PZ30AUR )
Customer Review: Delightful Keyboard
Summary: 5 Stars
For the person who has everything! (Also very functional). Most important, the QWERTY area is visibly well lit no matter how you position yourself to type; each letter is well defined. I would have to say though, that this keyboard looks best when you sit directly over it as much as possible. This is best made possible by placing the keyboard on a slide out keyboard tray such as the one that slides from under my desk.
If I were to nitpick.... Even in this ideal position, some keys are not evenly lit; some portions of the character black out. For example, the '@' above the 2 is not illuminated entirely and evenly. However, you can live with this. You see just enough to know what it is!
In addition, the most important thing is that the QWERTY area is well illuminated. Most keys that do suffer uneven lighting, suffer uneven lighting only to the slightest degree. I chose the red version over the blue for reasons I've read over the net. Apparently, looking at the color red affects night vision less than other colors. After extensive use of this keyboard, I've had no complaints!
This keyboard is a delight to use in low light environments; no more fiddling about with desk lamps in a futile attempt to make out your keys! This solution is much more elegant. The defining attributes of this keyboard outweigh its very few and very minor foibles. Buy this keyboard! It well set you well on your way to feeling as if you are Mission Commander!
Note that the Logitech illuminated keyboard is a close competitor but I have not used it before to be able to make a comparison.
