Up for sale is a display extender that i bought as a spare when Stu made a second run of them. I would like to get what i paid for it, $300 plus shipping charges.

The display extender is located in the North Bay Area, CA. The buyer is welcome to pick this up to save on shipping.

Also, i will ship worldwide (at buyers cost).

Thanks,
Jim

for those that are not sure what this is, i have included a picture. (thanks gbeer)

Would someone please say they desperately want this and buy it? If it sits here much longer I'm very much in danger of buying it to add to the collection-of-empeg-bits-that-I-don't-need-right-now-but-might-in-the-future.

The only thing that's keeping me from doing the very same is my finances. :-p

this was the reason i bought the spare

also to help get another batch going for those who didn't get one in the first run

Bump!

still available

Bump,

I will include shipping in the U.S.
If you live out of the U.S., i will cut the shipping in half.

Jim

What is this kit for? its more then just a long cable, right? Do the VFDs need special circuitry for that length cable or something?

Yes.

^ can someone verify this?

i haven't hooked up my other extender yet but i was under the impression that this kit was a 'plug and play' set-up.

BTW, this is a fully assembled kit, no need to assemble

Jim

i will post up a pic of all the parts in this kit later this afternoon (PST)

Jim

The two boards in the display extender are the 'special circuitry' needed.

Stig

Okay, verification for that statement is here.

Holy cow! I just noticed the FAQ talks about "preliminary work on display extenders" and I never updated it to say that display extenders actually ended up getting produced. I'll have to update that!

i have yet to find my camera so i will have to resort to stealing pics off the bbs .

Bumpity bump!

some interest, no follow through.

so what exactly does this expander do... can you dock the hard drive separate from the face?

Yes.

bump,

still available

To The Top!

Shipping in the U.S. is free,
shipping to the world, i will pay for half.

surely someone needs/wants this.

I do. It's the back account that doesn't. :-(

Is this still available? I would like to buy it. I'm on the east coast. Let me know how you would like to handle the transaction.

PM sent
