The DAVIS Vantage Pro2 Console uses LED backlighting, which can be left on continuously without significant concerns about lifespan. Users have reported keeping the backlight on 24/7 without issues. To do this, simply turn on the backlight and leave it enabled. There are no specific instructions in the provided context on how to enable continuous backlighting, but it is possible based on user experience.
