I just quoted you because I agreed with your sentiment. My reply was directed at Dave and anyone else developing a product (including a reminder to myself!) |

--- Quote from: Mr. Scram on October 29, 2017, 09:07:23 pm ---Both VFD and OLED aren't as durable as LCD. They tend to wear out or become unobtainable. Longevity is important in products like these, much more than it is in the mobile phone or general consumer markets. --- End quote --- My ancient Fluke 8842A would like to have a word with you about VFD longevity. At least when it comes to VFDs, they only tend to go bad quickly if they're poor quality or abused. And I agree with you; longevity is important in bench equipment. I wasn't referring to full colour OLED so much as the more inexpensive, lower density OLEDs used for these kinds of equipment.. |

Well it depends on what device in question do. Assuming a display have say 20k hours lifetime, that can be ~10 years working in lab, decades working for hobbyist, or a bit over 2 years if run 24/7. |

OLED is also known to cause issues, in lower density screens too, even though that might be due to the technology not being very mature. |
