Is the backlight on a 255w supposed to timeout when running on
battery?
If so, I can't find the setting for this in the menus? Where to look?
My older Nuvi 350 had adjustable timeout delay to improve battery
life.
hmmm - interesting concept -
a GPS for a car that gives nav directions and then turns off the screen...

Improving battery life doesn't sound like in-car use.

If you hold your finger on the battery indicator for 15-30seconds and
put the system in debug mode, you can adjust the backlight %.

Actually, I think you mean go to Tools, Settings, Display, then
Brightness. That's where you adjust the backlight intensity, but there
is no timeout option on the Nuvi's, as far as I can see.
