Re: [emulatorII-list] Backlight for LCD

2002-12-28 by 3phase

I work with LED Backlight and it works, 5V they need are availible. but for
security reasons i dimmned them a bit with a  little pot. i think the led
backlights would take maybe to much current if run with full brightness.
i replaced the komplete display with a standard type.
even when lumitex look probably better...its much cheaper and looks
allwright aswell.
