P-LEDS ???

Are Poly-LEDs the same as PLEDS? IF they are then i think I’ve found a source for £25 each, although they are limited to one colour.

Can somebody please check the link out and let me know if these are the now hard to find PLEDS.

No, that picture is definitely a negative LCD with edge-lit white LED backlight.

I have no idea why they call that a Poly-LED display.

Strange… unless it’s an incorrect photo. I would have thought Poly_LED, Polymer-LED and PLED would be the same.

Well, it *might* just be a clever marketing trick - “poly” means “multiple” or “many”, so an LCD that is backlit by multiple LEDs could be called Poly-LED ::slight_smile:

Hmnnn… That’s just cheeky. I’m not going to buy one as I’m stocked up from the LCD order that Kartoshka so kindly organised. I may email them and ask for details just out of curiosity though.
