Monitors.

[level42]

Would +love+ to see a pic of the semi-flat tube.

And Thomson sounds like a pretty good brand to me....

tadaaaa! - was working way to late to update anything yesterday...

First, it seems like the 19" tube can no longer be ordered

The prices: inclusive a better chassis than mine
14" monitor 999DKK,- minimum 5 stk
21" monitor 1249DKK,- minimum 5 stk
25" monitor 1449DKK,- minimum 5 stk
29" monitor 1649DKK,- minimum 5 stk
I did´nt get a chance to speak to allan after i received his mail, but im thinking the price will go down the more monitors we order.

@jcp
Allan has no problem in taking 5 14" monitors, if you only take 2 or 3 (he don´t mind having something in stock)


to clarify the "upgrade" in the chassis; the chassis i bought with my monitors, looks a bit cheap, so rather than buy something that is not ok, i spoke with allan, which wanted to upgrade the chassis to a better quality...

the pics:

14" tube:


21" tube


25" tube:


Chassis 31079:


Chassis 31080:


The chassis that came with my purchase looked like this:

The curve on the monitor looks OK to me, but too bad that he can't supply 19" or even 20" monitors.  

About the chassis: which chassis (31079, 31080) comes with which size monitor (I have never seen such an 'empty' chassis like the 31080)? The breakout control PCB of the 31079 is convenient. What is the name of the manufacturer of both chassis?

Good news Michael, as I don't need 5 monitors .

They look like Wei-Yah chassis but I'm not sure (yet).

I would like to know these values, following this picture on the 21" model :



A : the measurement between the two holes (from the center of the first hole to the center of the second hole° ?

B : Idem

C : the measurement of the visible picture diagonal

Thanks.

[level42]

Excellent question Bruno. We may be able to fit 21" in 19" spots...


I did find some hope for full monitors from the far east, with real round tubes and 20"....

Keep your fingers crossed !

P.S., if someone wants to take a business opportunity.....a 20' container fits 200 of 20" CRT monitors.....now all we need to know is the price.....

just wrote allan with your question..

[DarthNuno]

Thanks for the data  I'll check that tomorrow

The chassis are definitely Wei-yah (the new one's).

Ken Layton from the BYOAC forum says he has good experiences with them. (He's been repairing arcade monitors for about 30 years...)

[Muerto]

ok, thanks for the info André.

If we decide to buy from Allan here´s some ground rules...
The way it goes is that he places the order (3-4 days to confirm), he pays, and wait for them to arrive (2 months!) so it would take a while for them to get here (Denmark)...

Let´s wrap this up, if you like to buy some monitors, please PM me:
Size:
How many:
NOTE: Payment, half now - half when you pickup/receive. - payment details will be Bank Transfer..

As I have most of my cabs in storage somewhere, and therefore am not able to check if 21" monitors fit in the following cabs:

Galaxian (or Pac-Man)
After Burner II
Galaga (or Ms. Pac-man)

Preferably without having to cut away wood or something, could someone tell me if this will work?

Michael, your supplier is sure that he can't get 19" or 20" semi-flat monitors? and should we also not wait for the outcome of the possibility that André is talking about above (real round tubes and 20")?

[jcp]

Michael, which is the 14" chassis ?
André : thanks for the information, if you are a few web links, it would be perfect  .

[Superully]

ok, i've just measured on my gauntlet cab: A = 44 cm, B = 34 centimeters. one centimeter missing in each direction, so those probably won't fit!
