    so even a beat up but working one would have been a very fair price still I would have guessed but looks like to much damaged to save that one looks like water damages possible battery leaking maybe so it's all down to the other four, two of which been on the hunt for some time
    well they arrived



    but not having much luck so far I got one working but need to do some form of a ac reset but not sure how or if I can as it missing some of the read out but it seem it's more out of sync as they appear in certain modes so not like burnt out pixels so seen this with modern ones and once you ac it ..it fixes it most of the time

    the gold one is dead so got to do a complete strip down but as top left corner their is a black patch I might just clean and flip it and hope to recoup some of my lost

    another is shot maybe a lot of rust/leaking to it ..shame as outside condition is rather fine so two to go but can't get them open yet so need to do a bit of research before trying again

    London, I am NOT a cockney, though I live nearer to Bow Bells than most "cockneys" do.

    close two are the same just different casing but the other thou looks the same has a different functions, 4 are shot one works but has segement issues but not burn out so trying to see if their is an ac trick but as they have a hatch back for the battery can't easily get in it

    I took a bit of a chance with these ..but them's the chance you take but least they will do well as subject for threads on the digital sub-forum so not a complete waste
