hmmm can't find the seller... is it done?
Hey NeoRutty, if you're still searching for one of these, it's a Three-five Systems Inc. Type: TSA1605A. The seller's name is "electosurplus"
The description is "8 digit alphanumeric micro LED display - RED 14 segment no Nixie - bubble type".
Took me forever to find it this afternoon, I just 'lit the saber' on two of these after finding this video...

I'm so gonna try and make mine read "I BELONG TO RIDIRE FIREAN" and maybe some other stuff if I can make sense of how these things work.
I'm a little apprehensive about all the giggly-g ook on the underside of the board, and hope that I can figure out how to fit all of that mess inside a GRAFLEX. Or even better, if ErvPlecter happened to stop by here and say he has an idea as to how to run one of these boards off of the Crystal Focus v8, I'd be stoked!
Looking at the back of my
TI SR-51-II, there's only 20 wires leading in to the led circuit board. How in the world that controls 12 - 14segment leds is beyond me.
I wonder if you couldn't bypass having a (control box?) and just wire a static display off of the back of these?

Guess I'll find out in a couple of weeks! I figure, worst case scenario, I shave 'em down and stuff 'em in the clamp without worrying about the electronics and have a sweet SethS style activation board!!!
After thought... would these fit in a Canon Flash Unit Model X or Y???
