replacing CCFT on NEC 400v LCD monitor
Hello, all. I got two of these neat LCD monitors, both of which have a
picture but absolutely no light. After COMPLETELY disassembling them, I find the CCFT backlights are bad. The power supply is putting out around 500v, so it seems okay. The lamps just fell apart when I touched them, breaking at a darkened point near one of the electrodes. I found some CCFT lights from Alltronics.com which are the right size and look like they might be a good choice, but I really know nothing about them. Is there a better source, are there major differences in light output and life among different brands, etc? Any tips would be appreciated. John |

If NEC will not sell you the original parts, you should try what you can
get. Maybe they will work. Did you try to go to NEC first??? -- Greetings, Jerry Greenberg GLG Technologies GLG ============================================== WebPage http://www.zoom-one.com Electronics http://www.zoom-one.com/electron.htm Instruments http://www.zoom-one.com/glgtech.htm ============================================== "John KB5AG" wrote in message . com...

Hi, Jerry. I have been all over the NEC website but I haven't had any luck
finding parts. A google search revealed a company called JKL components that makes them, and both Mouser Electronics and Digi-Key sell them. They seem to be considerably brighter than the one I was considering from Alltronics, and they're not bad in price, around $10-$12 each. I think I'll try to fix one monitor and if I have luck, will go for the other. Thanks! John "John KB5AG" wrote in message . com... Hello, all.
