New screen from Dealextreme

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

New screen from Dealextreme

Post by Nintendott »

Here is a 3,5" LCD screen with resolution at 640X480 fro 57$.
It comes with an IR Nightvision camera to. Good for small project`s exept the price.

Only for NTSC users.

No offense or anything, but when DX advertises their screens they blow the resolution way out of proportion. This means that it can handle 680x480 input, but the actual screen of the monitor is probably around 320x240.

I wouldn't really know as I don't actually have this specific screen, but it applied to another 3.5" screen I got off DX.

Prove me wrong!

would this be a good screen? Like for an NOAC project? I also see some 2.5 inch ones in the related search. What kind of batteries would it take to run one of those puppies for a couple hours?
