Had an interesting event happen today while flying. A few minutes into the flight both G3X's went completely dark. Engine kept running, and I was able to land shortly thereafter with the help of my instructor.
Once on the ground we noticed that the Nav Strobe 7.5A had blown. I have not figured out that issue (replaced the fuse and the lights work fine). However, while troubleshooting on the ground we were able to reproduce the G3X issue:

It's unclear to me why pulling that fuse causes the screens to auto-dim like that, but thought it was worth sharing with the collective.
