I recently got up a Duratech TS-1574 quite cheap. Originally from Jaycar no doubt
They sold it apparently because the iron was not working, but this does not matter as I already have 3 other irons anyway (I think the heater is stuffed but not 100% sure)
The real issues is that is seems the LCDs have issues - some segments not displaying properly (see attached photo)
This is only apparent on the "set temperature" part, not the "current temperature" readout.
Also, the backlight of the left display is much dimmer than the other, though this is hardly much of an issue...
Has anyone heard of this happening before, or is there any likely issue to cause this in LCDs?
