beginning the week of April 11 2016: Stern LED display panel Run-DMD clock kits will be available
after 2 months of design tweaks, I'm happy to announce that I now have an easy-to-assemble kit available to turn your extra, low voltage LED Stern displays into Run-DMD clocks.
for those of you that have upgraded the original all red (or green or blue) LED display panels (part no.s 520-5052-05, 520-5052-15, 502-6811-00) to a ColorDMD solution and have a perfectly good, unused panel lying about, this is the kit for you
the kit includes everything you will need, including an allen key wrench for assembly EXCEPT THE STERN DISPLAY
YOU NEED TO SUPPLY THE STERN DISPLAY YOURSELF
kit contents:
- Run-DMD EDGE board (x 1) [customized with a lower profile 90° right angle 2-pin molex connector for power]

snap-in legs to position the clock on a counter surface at a 23.5° angle (dual sided glossy black/matte black) (x 2)
- custom power cable terminated with 2-pin/4-pin molex connectors (to transfer power from the run-dmd EDGE board to the back of the stern DMD display panel) (x 1)
