Emax

you would not connect the high voltage for the inverter and instead  
run a line from +5v for the backlight, just like if you were going to  
use an LCD like in Emax II. I bought spares that are exact duplicate  
EL backlight that literally plugged in to my Emax I, once I put the  
pins on.

There is a 1MM differential in one dimension, and 8MM longer, but it  
would depend on the hole placement whether that would have any actual  
mounting issue.

That is looking at CU16025ECPB-W2J. You would have to have the N01  
connector.

If the mounting is not an issue, then it could certainly work..
