With that CSS I get a white background with 20 pt font size (though it needs some fine tuning to not affect other applications hat much):

notebook*,box*{

}
this:
notebooK*,box* {
       background-color: black;
        font-size: 40;
}
gets me a black border, a bright white background inside that border and greyed out text I cannot read unless it has focus, at the normal text font size.
try that:
notebook* {
    font-size: 20px;
    color:black;
}
label {
    font-size: 20px;
    background-color: white;
    color:black;
}


Several questions result, Hans:

1: Where can I find the Document describing how to use this css stuff?
https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/css-overview.html
https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/css-properties.html
You can also inspect halmeter with GTK Inspector, with that you will see all CSS properties: https://developer.gnome.org/documentation/tools/inspector.html

2: And where can I find the file I need to set and make chattr +i, everytime I use nano to remotely edit something like this, I loose the keyboard repeat globally, a PITA that takes me half an hour to find and fix with the bookworms hiding of everything important

3: Spectacle, the screen shot taker, doesn't work on screens logged into other machines. So I can't even try to show you what I see.

You could experiment with the high contrast styles in the desktop
manager, though that doesn't seem to have much effect on halmeter.
I have added that dir and css file which didn't exist, getting
a fixed black background which helps a bit but the text size
of 20 doesn't make it bigger. I've not tried larger values.  I will
when next at the machines own keyboard. Currently I am
attempting to reconfigure it back to 3 axis for doing some
simple EDM. I have the hardware to make the edm feed
automatic, winding my own transformer to measure the
sparking activity & making that an analogue voltage to
present to a 7i76D analogue input pin. If I am successful, you
will get schematics that could be used  W-EDM machine.
