Re: [emax] OLED group buy....

2012-09-27 by Ted Summers

Raystar Optronics can make them in white, and so can Winstar with the pins
on the side 2 rows, just like the original...
Raystar part # for WHITE OLED is:
REC001602CWPP5N00000

Winstar part # is very similar

WEH001602C-WPP5N00000

Regards,
Ted
