Anyone know where I can find this?

Does anyone know where I can get a (very) cheap 640x480 LCD? Preferably one that's under 7 inches.

I'm looking for one that doesn't consume too much mAh and that's under 13 volts.

I want this LCD to accept AV signals... Thanks.

I searched ebay & amazon and I didn't get anything that I wanted.

Anyway thanks.
May I ask what this is for?
13v seems like an unusual supply voltage

It's hard to find any battery pack above 13 volts that's lightweight.

I'm using the screen to make a gamecube portable and sell it to enthusiasts for profit. (Help me raise money for a good GPU and parts for a rc plane)
Sweet!
Well good luck :)
Are you agree to buy the 2nd hand LCD?

How much you selling the gamecube's for? I want to know how much you are willing to spend.

I'm planning on selling then for ~500

The price may go up and down depending on how much I spend on materials.

BTW: It says it's unavailable for the U.S...

You could probably easily build one for 200. Maybe you should sell them for a little less.

EDIT: Just found out these actually go for 500.

No you can't. The machines to do such a task are expensive. Craftsmanship needs to be factored in as well and you need other parts such as batteries and chargers in addition to accessories.
500 bucks is a lot for Gamecube. Good luck finding buyers for that.

I can't even think of a situation where I would WANT a portable gamecube. I have a gamecube, and never have I said "Wow I really wish I had my Gamecube while I sit here and wait".

Should invest in some market research before you spend a bunch of money building this.

I'm more interested in a portable xbox to (hopefully) play halo on the go.

Well people are all over benheck forums and looking for portable gamecubes...


I don't know why, but they just do.

(I'm selling the finished product for that much...)

I hope you are successful on your business adventure Lumpkin.
Hopefully this ain't too of topic but does anyone know where I can find a DSI - MIPI (2 data paths) LCD screen that's compatible with a Raspberry Pi (Model B)?

Either that or just a screen that hooks up the the yellow pin in an RCA connection.

I want roughly <= 5" in screen size with the tiniest amount of casing possible (the raw LCD with cables sticking out would be best)
I think a RCA-yellow screen input would be best because I can guarantee it'll work, whereas there's lots of different variables with the DSI.

The only thing I can find is like the car monitors that I linked myself however there's something odd with the red cable and I'm not sure how the screen actually works with the RCA.

Just get the car monitor and fiddle around with it then. They're only like 20 bucks so it doesn't really matter.

... You mean "They're only like 10 quid" right? XD

Actually I was a little unsure about them but I found an image on the Pi webpages of someone using one of them and it works perfectly fine without 'much' fiddling.
Just the power for the LCD needs to be adapted for 5V rather than 12V, but it actually comes with a 5V and 12V terminal so just a single wire needs resoldering to the 5V terminal.
