thanks for the help
Jason
Make one yourself, you can get cheap LED panels which you can interface really simply.
Do a search on
AliExpress. There's bound to be something suitable there.
I have a 1 line 18x 5x7char bi-color led display that works but i don't have the software to reprogram it and the software doesn't seem to be available. The demo runs as soon as you plug it in, so i know it works fine.
It needs new controller code written and maybe a new mcu (probably an old mcu)
So it would make a nice project for someone.
If you're in NZ and can pickup from Auckland i'd be happy to sell it for $50
