    Hello,

    What level of light leakage do people find acceptable? I have some but am in two minds as to how bad this is.

    Do people have this problem at the same level, better or worse?

    The below pictures are using the Windows (Vista) 'Blank Screen' screen saver on my current brightness (second pic at higher brightness) Pictures were taken in a dark room.

    Comments? Thoughts? Recommendations?

    I have read a few threads on this. There seems to be no benchmark for setting what is acceptable and what is not.

    For my part, I am reluctantly thinking this is just acceptable although annoying.

    Regards,

    Carl

    Thats not too bad, pretty much all CCFL have some light leakage. I have seen MUCH worse than that.
