FS: Empeg Display Extender - 04/04/2009 19:48

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

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

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?

^ 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

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

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!
