Razer Huntmans Elite backlit lighting not working

I have had my Huntsman for awhile and always noticed that it wasn't what it looked like in any video or picture that I saw. I don't get backlit lighting under the keys. SOOOO..I purchsed some Razer Phantom keycaps thinking that this would solve it and nothing. Am I missing something? Posting some pictures to show you what I mean. The upside down shot shows no lights from the backs of the keys. Even when I had my old keycaps on there wasn't this "underglow" light that I kept seeing. HELP!

For me it's OK. Maybe you saw pictures/videos of BlackWidow keyboard (mechanical), which have translucent mechanical key housings, and it's making Chroma a lot brighter.

No. I have looked at tons of other pic/videos. Maybe my keyboard is faulty. Here is my old keyboard and as you can see it's completely backlit.

Nope it's not faulty. You've posted EVGA keyboard with translucent keys, that it makes it A LOT brighter. I've took a photo of mine BlackWidow V3 (with translucent keys) on top and Huntsman TE (which doesn't have translucent keys) on bottom - the difference is HUGE.
