Illuminate buttons On remote

Buttons on r2 remote stay on too short a time. Can they stay on longer?

Well my last directv remote that had illuminating buttons has crapped out. I don’t understand why they don’t make new ones?  When in the dark bedroom a light really helps to navigate the remote. I’m sure I’m not the only one who who would like a remote that lights up.  What say you Directv ???

This is a public forum of other customers. Even the few official responders will not have info for the backend business decisions made.

For other guidance please post to a recent relevant thread or post your own if needed. Thread from over 4 years ago so discussion long ended and may risk outdated information.
