Pitft50 Brightness Control
1 project | /r/BIGTREETECH | 9 Jan 2021

Found the answer after writing an email to BBT. Brightness is unfortunately set to 100% via hardware. Only way to change it is to remove R6 (0 Ohm resistor) and solder some wires with an potentiometer on it. I did that just yesterday, works pretty well but you have to use 1K or something to film it effectively. I used 10K and that is way to much. One slight turn and brightness changes to 20%. See https://github.com/bigtreetech/OctoBTT/issues/12
