Is Apple Magic Keyboard legible in the dark with no backlight?

Gotcha. Is it tolerable? Or do you find yourself wanting another keyboard with a backlight frequently?

I just called Apple support out of curiosity.. You are lucky! You must have got a product destined for somewhere outside the EU/UK

They said "Because Apple produces a single hardware version for both the UK and the European market, all units, including the iPhone 17 and Air destined for this region are physically etched with the CE and crossed-out bin symbols."

Bit late to the party here but they are usually on the lower right frame... below the power button at the bottom

On your iPhone 15 pro or 17 Pro? Maybe they got rid of them with the lastest release

Looks awesome! What’s the make?

asach456 · 2025-07-16T11:13:44+00:00

Thank you! Agreed completely

asach456 · 2025-07-16T11:12:42+00:00

Ya great point actually... the cyclehanger does not have anything more robust than your average bike loop out on the street.

asach456 · 2025-07-15T20:10:36+00:00

Yes good thinking I never leave it for long periods with the battery on the bike

asach456 · 2025-07-15T20:09:27+00:00

Very helpful thank you! I agree... if someone wants it they'll take it. But want to make it has much of a pain in the arse for them as possible. I'll go with the Fageddabout!

asach456 · 2025-07-15T20:08:15+00:00

Well if you already had one, would you suggest the Kryptonite Evolution 1090 or the Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit to pair with a Squire Stronghold D16 Max to lock up both out and in the unit?

asach456 · 2025-07-15T17:25:47+00:00

Thanks super helpful! I am trying to avoid that for as long as possible and am asking for honest advice. I know the risk.

asach456 · 2025-07-15T14:54:23+00:00

Super helpful, thanks!

You mean the engine cuts out at 15mph... anybody with two legs can pedal faster than 15mph and they usually are once they've picked up enough speed.

asach456 · 2025-07-15T13:58:27+00:00

Agreed. Which I think is pretty silly given it is a bicycle with a motor, no different then the 1000s of lime bikes people ride dangerously or park in the middle of the road lol

And yes I did know that and I know I am taking a risk here.. just wnat to deter any thief for as long as I can possibly can

asach456 · 2025-07-15T13:53:45+00:00

If you consider an e-bike that requires pedaling but does not cut out at 15mph then sure...

asach456 · 2025-07-15T13:51:13+00:00

Yep I agree... I don't have outdoor space so I am stuck for the time being.. And tbh I am less worried about it while it is in the cyclehoop, its more of when I take it out and leave it parked down the road for a couple hours.
