Daniel's murderbox - with a sLight twist

**ON2H2O** · 09-23-2009, 03:14 AM

If you're technically inclined, you can make your own. I made 2 this month and used them with Aquero fan/pump controllers. However finding an OLED with the correct controller and PCB is difficult now. Unfortunately I couldn't attach a photo since I don't have them uploaded anywhere

send email to Julian from matrix orbital:
rt@matrixorbital.ca

they made 3 PLED displays special for me (this week)

daniel:
did you try to install the displays on windows 7 x64?
they didn't work for me.

**Vinas** · 09-23-2009, 01:37 PM

I'd recommend just using the lk series LCD instead, cheaper and does the job. If you want to get fancy go for the MX series but IMHO the isn't a reason to buy pled. Both can be controlled with analog inputs or smartie.

Edit: The pleds are very nice mind you, but you can do the same with the readily available lk series AFAIK.

**dsecrieru** · 09-24-2009, 02:40 AM

Hi pelo!

The color difference is just a photo artifact, they are the same displays and they are definitely green! Very nice of MatrixOrbital to do a special request like yours for a display type that isn't being produced anymore. They probably have quite a few PLEDs displays left in stock.

I'm running Vista 64 and they work fine. Didn't try Windows 7.

Vinas, this is form over function, I agree. However, with a regular LCD I had trouble seeing anything on the display when looking even a bit from a side.

I'm confused, what are you waiting for?

**SNiiPE_DoGG** · 09-24-2009, 08:33 AM

Lol that color difference in the displays is no mistake, its because the green channel in charles' photo is completely desaturated

*not hatin though, color balance is very important and not everyone has the exact right setup for every angle and reflection

Tis the reason we're here I suppose.

That build along with Snipe Dogs "Flow" are my favorite builds BTW.

hehe, I just asked Daniel if they were not more yellow than green and he said they were more on the green side. With all on my plate at present, I frankly forgot!

Whelp, all my internal/night shots were taken with my aquarium fluorescent light strip for fill/key which is prolly only about 3500-4000K... it is a freshwater bulb. I reckon when trying to white balance the shots, the PLEDs took on a more yellowy hue in the pics.

did you have problem to connect 3 displays toghter?

i saw in one pic you use usb hub and second time special cable made by matrix orbital:
1. http://www.murderbox.com/uploads/DSC_5852e.jpg
2. http://www.murderbox.com/uploads/%20...derbox.008.jpg

i try to connect my 3 PLED with 2 different cable:
http://www.matrixorbital.com/mx234-p-20.html

the LCDC control only one display
and the screen show only one line of the two and flickering all the time.

thank you for your help
i hope you can answer to my quastion and give me some advices:

Nils,

Where did you get the cable management ties? The ones with screws that screw into the chassis.. I could use a couple.

**sniperbob** · 10-09-2009, 08:27 AM

just search for "P-clips" I think is what they are called

**hiiyah777** · 10-09-2009, 08:41 AM

I bought mine at Home Depot....

Hi!

I'd like to ask that which fittings do you use on the white plastic plate here?
I'd like to use this solution in my case, but I did't find fittings like thease

Ty 4 Ur answer

**charles_h** · 10-31-2009, 03:03 PM

Hi syc,

I used these - Bitspower triple rotary barb fittings

**syc** · 10-31-2009, 03:30 PM

I'm afraid u didn't understand me. Sorry for my english. I try it again

So is this white plastic plate so "deep" that you jumped two G1/4 thread in it, and you just screwd in the BP triple rotary fittings like this:

??

**charles_h** · 10-31-2009, 03:43 PM

Yes.

The luminous panel is 12mm thick - ample room for threading from both sides.

Thank you for Your answer

**anubis_is_evil** · 11-04-2009, 02:09 AM

always forgot to ask about this one...

how do you manage to make the tube stand straight from res into GPU, charles ?

or something unvisible is holding on that bitspower adapter ?

don't say that your using some kind of magic

I don't think there is anything holding it, come on man, it's Charles, Mr.Perfection

I bet it was done with about 15 tries of the correct tubing length and patience. If it's not perfect, Charles won't show it!

**dsecrieru** · 11-04-2009, 03:51 AM

Go to http://www.murderbox.com/gallery.html and browse the pictures, there are a few that clearly show the top part. There's no magic, the assembly is stiff enough because of the short hose between the top video card and the BP 'L' shaped thingie (how do you call that one?)
