Interesting was that the Paperwhite was much darker than the Fire, the lowest setting on the Fire is similar to a medium setting on the PW, I found the lowest setting on the PW much too dark to read at nighttime.

So are you saying the PW is too bright then?

Are you using Screen Dim on the Fire? I am surprised I am able to read on the Fire. If I did not use Screen Dim it would be too bright for me to read in the dark.
