2.3" alphanumeric LED - where from?

[MartinM57]

Any idea where I can get some in the UK?

...or even bigger? Like 4-inch?

If you just want normal 7-segment rather than alphanumeric, old digital alam clocks are a good source but they usually have a somwhat awkward two-phase multiplex ( 16 anode / 2 cathode or so ).

Have you tried e-bay? I,ve seen some large displays on there in the past...mostly shipped from China I believe

Futurlec carries them I think.

...err, no - I want alphanumeric not 7-segment. Hence the post

....and Futurlec don't seem to do the large size

I'll look on eBay, but any keep coming with any ideas

Well done e.

Didn't see that you can buy direct

$5.17 ea. by the way.....not a bad price, although shipping is the same price as buying nearly 3 more (so I bought more than 1 to make it less of an overhead!)
