Hello all after the 10.6" was a huge I hit i decided to look for the next panel to sweep the lumenlab nation so to speak and found this....

Sharp LQ072K1LA03

Size: 7.2"
Resolution: 1280x768
Condition: New

So I dicided that it wouldnt hurt to look into it farther and so i conntacted some foreign trade companys. Now for the good part they got back to me and sent me a load of offer sheets for 10 LCD's. Now there is one problem with this i dont know where to find a controller for them I was hoping that someone may know or the the controller for the 10.6" would work

11$ for a 7.2 lcd?i could be interested...how much will be the controller?

[Foxxici]

I think you misunderstood that offer. I think it's 110$ per lcd-screen but you have to buy a minum of 10 monitors which makes a total of 1100$

I can see if carpow can whip something up for this panel.

This is what carpow said to me:

Part Number: Sharp LQ072K1LA03
Size: 7.2 "
Resolution: 1280 x 768 pixels
("WXGA")

But to someone else he said he doesn't have them

contrast ratio?

I wish I knew it

[johnzo1995]

Oh, I talked to carpow a few weeks ago on this panel, he said the contrast ratio was really bad 1:100 or something. So didnt even order one for testing, he said it would be a waste.

Hey guys thought I would update you. Today I mailed 3 suppliers about 10 panels if its ok with refs i could post the quotes if you guys think that the price is wrong. But anyway my plan is to get 1 panel from the US supplier as a test panel (they do that i already asked them) and with the help of someone see if it will work with either of the 10.6" panel controllers. As i said if you guys want to see the quotes i got i will be more than happy to post them if thats ok with refs (just wanted to make sure because i couldnt post quotes for lenses)

Edit: just saw johnzo1995's post and will have to check on that contrast when i call the US supplier today.

Looking forward to see what it's like - hope you dont have issues with the CR if you do get one.

None of Carpow's controllers were ever 'flashed' for our 10.6" panels anyway...so there is a reasonably-good chance they would work as-well with this ws/1280X768 panel (although one needs to make-sude of 'fit' for LVDS-cable and/or 'fab' one).
And published contrast-ratio's/brightness/view-angles figures are pretty 'meaningless' if/when you are going to strip-off AG's/polars then pour ton's of lumens through-panels. [However, refresh-rates are a 'gift that keeps-on giving' for panels used in PJ's]
I'd say 'try-one', and see how it goes? MAYBE someone with a 10.6" controller lives close enough to you for a 'trial-run' experiment? [Or maybe Johnzo could rent-to-own'... ]

[mdmfootball]

Alright im going to get one from the US supplier as a test panel to see if it will (they told they would do that for me). Ill get back to you guys with more details on the panel because they are sending the spec sheet.

[NinHowFritz]

I wonder if I could get one of these panels out of them.. It would be nice, being in college doesn't leave me rolling in money .

[mdmfootball]

Hey if you want i can get one for you still not sure if they work with that controller though

[bknight]

im liking this but http://www.lumenlab....s...0472&st=280
so what is the controller, is in his post pic ?
he said that the controller was for a 8.9 and not for the 10.6

It's the same controller as the 10,6" ones but with a different bios

That would be awesome, I am planning on getting a 10.6" as well during the early summer, so I would be able to see if the MST controller would work.

[Lothar]

If those panels actually end up being $10-$15 I'll probably jump head first on one (even if I have to look elsewhere for a controller) but I'm guessing they're $110 each with a minimum quantity of 10. I look forward to your testing. I know it would be a lot of effort too, but if you do go with one of these, could you attempt to find out what all the different layers are and how easy they are to remove?

[NinHowFritz]

Maybe contrast ratio issues could be resolved by replacing the polarisers, if there are any (issues).

[mdmfootball]

Added the Price quote to the first instead of on this post (dont know how to delete post )

Ok, if you can find a controller for this and your testing goes well, I think I'm gonna have to bite...

[bknight]

this is just for the lcd panel,so what would you need to get it to work besides a controller. ??

Lcd, controller, osd board, power supply, Lvds cable and a datasheet. Oh and an inverter if you want to use the backlight.

[Lothar]

I assumed that the lvds cable, would come with the controller and the OSD would be part of the controller, not a separate board... Can you get a datasheet for this panel (if you already linked to one, I guess I missed it)?
