I know this isn't directly related to Picbasic, sorry to go off topic here, but I thought maybe someone fom this board could point me in the right direction.

I'm looking for a decent outdoor LCD, IE weather proof.

Something like a 16 char x 1 or 2 lines. Or is my best bet just having a nema case made for a standard LCD?

TIA
Brad

Are you looking for one of these, or lots of them?

1 to test, then about 125 total if it works well...

Depends on sex appeal factor but for techie users that care more about function than style I use an IP67 plastic case with a clear top. I/O is via cable glands and the display is readable through the case. I do not have any holes in the clear top or white/grey bottom except for the waterproof cable glands. I used a magnet tethered on a cord to trip reed relays for i/o in an underwater system that was operated by a diver with gloves.

Brad:

Have a look at my website, www.controlgrips.com. We have just introduced a 2 x 16 LCD enclosure.
