best screen to buy
what is a screen with a mother board that i know is going to be exact and will run off 5 volts so far i bought two screens from amazon and the boards are just to big.
Re: best screen to buy
I bought the BW 3.5 Composite display from the seller: e-life. Should be variant 4 on the wiki page. The main board is not as big as the screen. Also comes with the separate button board, which is a plus.

Re: best screen to buy
True, and I almost bought one. But I'm quite happy with the quality of the composite display. I'm not sure what the quality is like of the screens people are removing from the rear view cameras on amazon, but this one is pretty clear. Plus, @myunholysins was looking for one with a smaller PCB.Fleder wrote:Yeah, but it also has 4x more pixelsCamble wrote:This one has a very small board:

I just ordered a 640x480 monitor from AliExpress

This guy guarantees it's a high resolution screen. If that's true it's the best choice ever!

Looks good, but any other site that can accept PayPal? Last time I tried to use credit card to buy something from China, by Bank was calling me that they put that transaction on hold as suspected fraud activity...Bols wrote:I just ordered a 640x480 monitor from AliExpress

Re: best screen to buy
If that screen is indeed 640x480 I'll buy a few but I doubt it. Please keep us informed when you do receive it.

Re: best screen to buy
Well then just tell them this is a correct transaction and to trust charges by this merchant. It's AliExpress that does the charge not the sellers individually (those I wouldn't trust with my CC lol)tronicgr wrote:Looks good, but any other site that can accept PayPal?
