PK202-24 Brightness Issue/Display Lifespan
Posted: Thu Nov 03, 2005 8:27 pm
Hey MO Folks,
I've been using your PK202-24 USB out of the MX6 package for 3 months as of tomorrow and I've been loving it, except that I'm finding it becoming noticably dimmer. I'm not only finding it becoming dimmer, but also the lighting seems to be uneven across the letters. The display is plugged into a floppy power connector, which to my knowledge is the proper voltage (it is at the proper voltage according to PS specs, unmodified), so power is not a concern, nor is my USB failing in any way that I am aware of. I remember seeing somewhere before purchasing the PK202-24 that the PLEDs have a much smaller lifespan than most of the other displays, being a newer technology, but that the lifespan was still at least 10,000 hours or so. Unfortunately I cannot find the document I read this in to show this fact. If you can help me out, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Brian
