Davo Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm ordering four to tinker with. I have the capacity to stock stuff, so if you all want to do a group buy, I can coordinate it.Davo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidBanner Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Rowan,I'm in the UK and I'd like some too, 4 would be ideal for me....Does anyone have any idea where to get the knob for the top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Now for some questions. What values would be best? If the pots can be replaced, you'll need ones with 90 degrees of travel rather than the 280 or whatever it is on regular ones. It looks like I can get a 25-unit lot with 100k pots. Opinions? Questions?Now is the time for me to tell a little more about myself so you won't feel like I'm some sort of con-artist. I've been selling stuff on Ebay for a couple years under the name "frotz661" with a current score of 203/100%. I deal mostly in vintage computer equipment and have lots of repeat customers.Davo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 10k linear is recommended but word has it that 20k and 50k have worked fine so 100k might too... I've only read this but I haven't heard how or why and I haven't read the datasheet to find out how the pins behave.I could give a more definitive answer if I found out if/why 10 or 50 both work the exact same way, but I'll wait and see if anyone else knows before I reinvent the wheel and get red eyes reading the datasheet ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is selling one after another, but I have already bought four of his displays for my projects.They contain the Toshiba T6963C controller - ideal if you want to use the display in a vertical way. Mine will be used for a general purpose synth editor box with knobs to both sides of the display.Regards, ilmenator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrBunsen Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Any word on the interface? If they're HD44780 compatible, we should snap up all four lots of 10 and divvy them out on the forums. SmashTV?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
