This is going to be my first time owning a Kindle, but it looks like the process is to first jailbreak it, then install KUAL, and then I can add these extensions in order to turn the lights completely off on the lowest setting? Are all three extensions needed to do this or just one or two of them? Looks like I can go for a PW3 after all. Thanks so much!
