# night light activity
Change the brightness of the micro:bit.
### ~avatar avatar
### @video td/videos/night-light-0
Welcome! This tutorial will teach you how to change the brightness of the micro:bit. Let's get started!
### ~
The brightness of the LED screen can be changed by using the `set brightness` function. This function takes a number between ``0`` (off) and ``255`` (full brightness).
Let's build a little app that dims the screen when pressing button ``A``.
Add the code `show LEDs` and select all LEDs to turn on all the LEDs. Don't hesitate to run your code to see what happens.
```blocks
basic.showLeds(`
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
`)
```
The screen starts with a 50% brightness value by default (128). Add a new line of code to set the full brightness (255) using `set brightness`.
```blocks
led.setBrightness(255)
basic.showLeds(`
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
`)
```
Add a new event handler for `on button pressed(A)` and add the code to set the brightness to `64`.
```blocks
led.setBrightness(255)
basic.showLeds(`
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
`)
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
led.setBrightness(64)
})
```

# night light challenges
Coding challenges for night light.
## Before we get started
Complete the following [guided tutorial](/microbit/lessons/night-light/activity), your code should look like this:
```blocks
led.setBrightness(255)
basic.showLeds(`
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
`)
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
led.setBrightness(64)
})
```
### Challenge 1
### @video td/videos/night-light-2
What if we want to turn off all the LEDs? Let's do this by setting the brightness to `0` when button `B` is pressed. Add an event handler with `on button pressed(B)` add `set brightness(0)` to turn off the LEDs.
```blocks
led.setBrightness(255)
basic.showLeds(`
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
# # # # #
`)
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
led.setBrightness(64)
})
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
led.setBrightness(0)
})
```
**Challenge 3**
Add an event handler with `on shake` to change the LED brightness back to a `255`.
* `Run main` your script to see the LEDs change brightness.
