    Can you feel the lurv? :D

    Thanks for the nice comments. To answer some questions - The backlight is fed directly from the 5V volt supply. I did try a variable regulator for manual dimming but decided it didn't need it.

    I intend to make a new, thinner cable combining the data and power wires into one. I just haven't got round to it yet. :cool:

    Slightly warm, but that's normal for a backlight of that size.;)

    Kick ass mod micro, love your case with the fiber optics. Where do you get those Polaroid sheets to invert the LCD? Thanks

    No Fare!

    Unable to view the images?

    Can someone post the best ones in the thread.

    May have been an idea to have spread the review over a couple of pages. Just thinking of the 56Ker's.

    Still having said that it reads good and I'm sure it will be up to your very high standard. :cool:

    the "foot" is a custom "MACRO" design, if you read the article, you will see that its a microphone stand with blue LEDs in the bottom.

    That's a cool looking mod :)
    Macroman would it be possible to use the polaroid already on the LCD and just flip it or would it be too hard to reatach it after you had removed it? or look tacky?
