Question about digital clock

[ravecrocker]

Hey guys first time posting here sorry if this is in the wrong place but does anyone know the size of the little screen used for the digital clock?

[Mario]

The digits or the whole glass tube? I believe the tube is 58x28.5mm or so.

Actually i need a diagonal like a digital screen

[Nicholas R]

Oldest theorem in the book: A^2+ B^2= C^2

Based on Marios dimensions its 64.5mm.

[DMCMW Dave]

Just knowing the diagonal does not allow one to know the dimensions of the hole.

[ravecrocker]

Well i was hoping to at least fill the hole with a digital screen what would you suggest then?

[Bitsyncmaster]

It also depends how close to the surface of the "hole" you can mount your screen. Remember your looking at the screen at an angle in the drivers seat.

hmm true i didn't even think about that, i saw a picture of a DeLorean clock replacement where you could play pong, so I am building my own using an AY-03-8500 chip

Good project. Nice that another electronic person is interested in the D.

I'll probably sell a kit to install once i get my Del but until then i'm basically relying on community interpretation
