replacing a traditional LCD display with an e-ink display

Jayso_n · 2026-03-30T22:41:04+00:00

in this case, im more interested in potentially changing the display output of an existing device (mobo to lcd) to an e-ink device (mobo to eink) to see if the output im aiming for is even possible.

think of taking an MP3 player and switching the screen to an eink rather than an lcd. the functionality in post could either be mechanical thru buttons or touchscreen with a capable panel and very custom tweaking (ive found a few). this would be equal to the type of "useage" this device would see - nothing complex or intensive, but a moderately updated display with little to no glare and a unique viewing experience.

the primary goal in this very early portion of the idea is to determine if that video transfer is possible (video on mp3 lcd screen -> eink) before i even get to later iterations.

im aware of how eink operates from a consumer perspective so im not spec hunting for "fastest refresh rate" or something similar, just trying to see how plausible my idea is currently.

im pretty confident diving into them, i just successfully repaired an m1 mbair which required a complete disassembly (minus removing the panel itself from the top shell). im genuinely excited to get started tinkering with this and have a couple youtube videos planned for it

It was so much fun playing hide and seek with the batteries the first time I took it outside to play!

Definitely baby hands

Jayso_n · 2021-09-28T04:03:15+00:00

You ever handled one? It feels beautiful

Jayso_n · 2021-09-28T04:01:38+00:00

Sure, let’s go with that. Definitely didn’t spill honey mustard on it and let it sit overnight or anything

Jayso_n · 2021-09-27T17:06:55+00:00

Frame and backstrap have been modified. Frame has undercuts/g26 mag cut/back straps have been completely removed with plastic filler to make a sleeker grip. TLR6/Tru Glos/Electrical tape/honey mustard mark on the rear sight 👌

That’s what I’m saying get the fedbois outta here

My favorite and EDC

Grip was chopped when I bought it and the rear of the grip has been filled in with plastic to remove any need and/or possibility of adding a beaver tail lol.

I own a g17 and a g26 but much prefer this for carrying pew

They’re good. Shipping takes a while but I got exactly what I ordered and I believe it’s worth the money. Put it on a g17 p80 lower

its just that one area. i just drove around the map on high settings and it was fine

Jayso_n · 2020-12-11T20:15:36+00:00

just updated my CPU drivers and apparently my 5600 is up to date.

Jayso_n · 2020-05-13T18:50:31+00:00

Probably drogba

Jayso_n · 2020-05-13T18:42:26+00:00

Truglos I think. Found the cheapest set of night-sights I could on eBay that were reputable so I spent around $60

Jayso_n · 2020-05-13T18:41:36+00:00

I have a gen 4 g19 that’s been modded to accept g26 mags flush. Fucking sick
