I can get some inverters for 5CDN$ about 2,5 euros with backlight but the problem is that they are some 2x40 char. backlight and it's a 12v inverter.(And they make no noise too). Heating the joints(but first removing it from the board not to detach cooper from PCB) seem to have fixed the problem, but I don't think it will last much time. I think that the trick that tells to add solder maybe just heats the inverter joints finally. g0ory@... a \ufffdcrit: > That's a nasty one!
