Cosmos II 15.6" screen flickering?

Hi all,

My Clevo has been great since I got it but yesterday I was using it outside and so turned up the brightness from minimum (which is what I have it set to inside).

The brightness was on the second level down from maximum and after a few minutes the screen backlight started flashing like a broken fluorescent tube (i.e. random, quick flashes off and on again). I was using a browser to look up some info (fuse details for a Peugeot 306 :) )

Turning the brightness down to min and it stopped. Back to two down from max and flashing again. Turned right up to max and it stopped (for the few seconds I left it on max).

This was operating on a 2/3rds charged battery, Balanced power mode.

I haven't (yet) been able to replicate it.

Is this a known problem with these?

If my eyes can stand it I'll use it all day on max brightness today and see if I can get it to happen again.
