Better Screen

[hackerboy]

I'm building a CNC PSOneP from the book and i need a screen because i can't get ahold of a casio ev-680. I have narrowed my choice down to an AEI components ALCD3L screen at http://www.aeicomp.com/Detail.asp?Produ ... .230_LCD3L" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or a pustom 3" screen from http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.15001" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. I think the AEI screen would be best but send me your suggestions and ways to hack the screen to my motherboard. one small thing the AEI screen says it's 3" but in the description it says it is 4" (which one is it?)

The AEI one is obviously better, but the Pustom is cheaper. Your call.

Try http://www.industriallcd.com they're stuff is better than AEICOMP, the sample costs are around the same prices as AEICOMP screens but these are better quality, trust me, I bought a 2.5 inch LCD from them, it was dead when i received it, they sent another one, it lasted 2 or 3 days, another one, 2 weeks then it died while I was testing it one day, they sent me a 3.5 inch one and I have no use for it til my next portable. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

I think i will go with the pustom due to the dials and affordability and becuase it is a lot cheaper (like almost 1/2 the price) my only concern is whether it will fit. And is there anywhere with a tutorial on how to hack one 4 a potable?

I went to http://www.industriallcd.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and they seem to have some good stuff but I see no power specifications or prices... what's up with that?

The Pustom screen is nice because it has an audio amp built in and a speaker. The AEI screens have neither.

amps can be built easily

Yeah, but good amps are harder to make an more expensive.

Pustom screens have good amps?

Did I say that Meh, I guess it sounds like I hinted that, but that's not what I meant at all.

im not too convinced with pustom, they run off 7 - 12v but i bought two at once, one lasted a week and now all i get is audio with wavy lines for a picture, the others still going strong but im really pi**ed off with the flimsy connector it came with so i relocated it to behind the actual screen. its got a pretty small control board so thats handy but its only mono sound and the quality of the picture varies.

i got a similar screen, it was dead when i recieved it so i opened it up to see what was wrong and the freakin cable that connects the lcd to the driver board snapped, i emailed alpha-bid to see if i could get a refund but i got no reply, bastards! oh well, I'm getting an industrial lcd lcd once i get enough money.
