I received an e-mail from an ERG sales rep today with spec attachments. While not marked confidential, they're not yet available on the public site so I won't attach here. For the NL8060BC21-03, I would use the SFDLB3683 LED driver and the SFR3658 rail (22 LEDs). At 80 mA, the rail spec states a screen brightness of 950 cd/m2 for the NL8060BC21-03. The stock brightness is 600. Note that the rail can be driven to a maximum of 100 mA, so maybe 25-50 more? I need to first gauge stock performance before I go LED.

I didn't inquire about price since I am not looking to buy right now and I don't want to hinder the sales reps.

My custom LVDS cable and 3M AR-MR200-coated IRTOUCH TS should have finally shipped today, but I'll believe it when I see the tracking number... I have felt like an six year old kid on Christmas Eve caught in a Groundhog Day loop, everyday is 12/24 . . .

I should be able to post pictures this weekend. I plan to compare against the stock Shark SHK804. I'll take dark, room ambient, partial sun, and direct sun photos.

BTW, I have started a thread in Fabrication for the installation, so now I can obsess over a new topic. From what I am reading, it's going to be a to complete the installation
