I want to limit as much brightness as possible to prevent ice strain

The problem with the Kindle is that it's holds a lot less on the screen which means I'm turning the page more often, which is an easy for me by Dexter problems

Also, with the Kindle when I go from zero points to 8 points in brightness theris zero difference so I question how accurate

I have two weeks to return the Kindle if it is unsuitable

I thought the Kindle scribe would be easier on my eyes, with no backlight needed but this case with any reader these days

I remember having a Kindle keyboard in 2010 which didn't have a back light or need one in most situations
There are very easy ways to get get more text on the screen of a Kindle Scribe.

Use the ChareInk6SP font as they will give you more text per line. Also, it will give you less of a line height with KF8. Don't use KFX as that won't help. Also, use negative L/R margins to remove some of the wasted margin space.
