I bought one of the minis to take apart and use as a video display in a diorama. (luckily, it was on sale too). After it showed up, ... A) It amazingly turned out to be TOO small for my intended application, (but maybe still useful in another planned diorama), ...B) It's just WAY TOO COOL as is! I downloaded a bunch of TV show openings/themes (from YouTube) of my favorite old shows and added them to the Mini TV. It's a neat little nostalgic rush to see & hear those blasts from the past. ... C) I was still able to take advantage of that sale and order a couple of the component kits with the larger screen for use now and in those future projects. :thumb2: Overall I highly recommend these little gems.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. I've been thinking about putting them in my larger scale spaceships forbidden planet, Jupiter 2, etc. when i finally get around to it.
