        @aareben some. all.monitors have backlighting, so you get a glow, particularly at night.

          @sdetweil if I lower the brightness and contrast to very low, will I still have glow?

                  @sdetweil I’m pretty sure you can have the raspi turn on and off the screen through the hdmi. I will have to check on that.
