Thread: confirmed features of 2008 lilliputs!

Wish I knew about the bezel method. Guess I'll have to see once I get my car back, if it appears to be LED backlit. The entire bezel is gone, but I'll ask if they still have what they chopped up at least.

Doesn't seem to be a consistency even with the programming as a way to tell.

It might be a little hard, but you could also measure the power that it uses. The 2008 lilliputs with LED backlighting use around 5-6watts when in use, whereas the 2007 and before with CCFL use over 7watts when in use.

What about asking the place you bought the LCD from.. they should be able to tell you, unless you don't trust them or something.

I trust them, but mistakes happen. The seller is a large volume seller and an older unit might have been shipped instead.

I just like to be 100% sure, before doubting the results.

What is the Difference between the 619 and 629 does anyone have correct specs for the 619

quick question, on my EBY701 I can get into the hidden menu 1 with language, but no further. Hitting the menu button just exits the menu all together.

Any help on this?
Thanks

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out, had to press MENU on the screen itself not the remote

If your buying it online, make sure you are looking at a picture of the exact model you are getting. From what I've seen, several of the online retailers use generic lilliput/xenarc images which are of previous years..

Just to confirm, are your 2008's wider on the right or left? I got one that seems to fresh off the assembly line that has a wider bezel on the right than the left side.

The lil manufacturer date stamp shows April 08 and it's definitely the LED variety.

Darn.. I've always had issues with my rights and lefts. Serves me right for being born with two left hands

You are correct, the right side of the casing is wider, not the left. I'll update my post to avoid confusion for others.

i'm a lefty myself, it too is my preference :P

at least that is cleared up. now what happened to that mechatronixs bezel and the custom mounts the user made for his 629 thread go. .
