Dimmer

Overview:

A small and free program designed to provide brightness reduction on LCD/TFT screens that, either don’t have, or lack proper brightness control. A must have if you work on your computer at night with very low ambient light.

Description:

Dimmer was designed with one function in mind only, to dim your laptop screen, in other words to reduce the brightness of the screen. I say laptop screen because most desktop LCD or TFT screens actually do have good brightness control, but not most laptops, notebooks and netbooks. It can dim LCD screens, dim TFT screens and even dim LED screens on the more modern portable computers.

Because I do work allot at night with minimum ambient lightning in the room or in bed and my laptop (all of them) still output a great deal of backlight even in the lowest setting, this was hurting my eyes and I couldn’t work well. So one day I decided enough was enough and developed Dimmer. I can now dim the laptop display to suit my needs and can finally work through the night without a problem. Your monitor brightness can be easily adjusted and the program sits in the system tray for your convenience. Dim screen easy.

Another convenient feature is that the program does not require installation. Simply extract into a folder of your choice and run. When no longer needed, just delete the program folder and you are done. The program stores its settings in an xml file so the Windows Registry is not used.

Dimmer has been much acclaimed as the best dim laptop display or dim laptop monitor around.

A few people have requested additional features and I will look into adding it when possible, in the mean time feel free to contact me to let me know whether you like or dislike the software.
