Stigmata Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 Hi there!Just cannibalized an card reader with an Seiko 16*2 display with el backlit works just fine!( for my SIDs)Take a while for me to understand why the backlit doesent work (Took a look at the cardreader pcb an saw the dc/ac converter! ;) ).Here is my question:Can I use it? or can I damage the the core with the el backlit (seems to work).Thanks!Christoffer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 Hi Christoffer,fine fine - yes, you can use it without the risk of damage. But note that EL foils have a lifetime of just only some thousand hours. So maybe you should add a switch in order to activate the backlit when you really need it.Best Regards, Thorsten.
