External PID Display Module

Post by Brewbud »

I am curious how visible the external PID Display Modules are in the sunlight. I have two holes in my control cart where Love controllers were installed. Now that I have switched to the awesome BCS system I want to fill dem holes. I had planned to just use a couple nameplates but now I am thinking about using the 7 segment displays.

What has been everyone's experience with them?

With direct sun, it's really hard to say. I can read mine from across the garage (which is why I installed them), but I'm not in the direct sunlight. The fact that you will be somewhat up close to them will help mitigate some of the sun issue.

Here's a pic of mine installed:
