on the rack you would still need the pot as the angle on the rack is a negitive veiw angle voltage

Sorry about the last post gave the wrong part number, this is exact part I used.
I have recently replaced my el foil display with this one:
Mouser Part #: 763-NHD-0216EZ-FLYBW
Manufacturer Part #: NHD-0216EZ-FL-YBW
Manufacturer: Newhaven Display
Description:LCD Character Display Modules STN- Y/G Transfl 85.0 x 36.0t
http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Newhaven-Display/NHD-0216EZ-FL-YBW/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMt7dcPGmvnkBq9RSAvEJGmRKdDSboNhMSQ%3d
$11.35 US
1) De-soldered the old header pins from the original display, soldered
them into new display.
2) Removed the old EL-Foil Driver (black box)
3) Used router and file on case to accommodate new display thickness
4) De-solder surface mount resistor R7, Solder resistor in R8
location. This supply's the +5v for LED Backlight
5) Header pins 1-14 need to be in place along with pin K (LED ground)
Nice new low power LED BackLight display, great contrast no need for
added potentiometer.
