Default Unusual functions of cheap parts

To save power, use the LEDs of a backlight to measure the ambient
light to decide to switch the backlight on or not.

But how to decide to switch it off? I think there you have to
sample - switch of for a short time and test. This could give a
flickering backlight.


Ok, you found the skeleton in the closet. :-) You can not use
this method to switch it off - but it is not required in most cases.
Think of a cell phone - the backlight goes on every time you press a
key, and it is going off after 10 seconds.
