>From what I've read, VFDs tend to dim with age rather than fail catastrophically, and they are favored by consumer electronics manufacturers for devices with long real-world lifetimes (10 years and longer). However, I don't know specific longevity figures for these particular displays, so I can't say.
Personally, I use the PowerSave plugin to make sure the displays are turned off when not in use. It just doesn't feel right to leave it on all the time. -- CatBus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CatBus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7461 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55942 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
