    The first 40 pages are free at



    The guy who wrote the book has a website at

    http://jestineyong.com/

    From what I can tell, he is geniune and he does know this stuff pretty good.

    I started by reading back to Jan 1, 2010 most/all the threads here and paying particular attention to the gurus who took the time to explain things in detail. Then I bookmarked it whether I understood it or not. As each day passed, I reread some of them and now things are starting to make sense.

    The hardest one is still the sense circuitry one. This is the one you are facing with the Daytek.

      In my opinion, you won't learn anything that you can't learn here for free.

          I suggest recycling it properly or posting it on kijiji/craigslist. Others may be able to use the parts.

            It's a decent book. Jestine knows his stuff, and while his English would make my grade 9 English teacher have a heart attack, he's easy to understand.

            I agree with Wrog, you can learn everything here, if you read enough threads.

            I'd say send the monitor to me, but it's probably not worth the shipping....

              Nah I'm not really gonna do it. I spent this much time working on it I'm hellbent on getting it going now. Ive already got tools on order for it.

                Good to hear! It's addictive though.

                I had e-cycled a bunch of 17" monitors from work. Then a co-worker asked me about his 19" I told him to buy a new one, but give me his old one and I'll take a crack at fixing it, then he can go dual monitors if it works (we all have 2 or 3 monitors here)

                I fixed it, then put the word out locally that I wanted some more.
                I've now done 9 successfully, 1 that had a bad MCU, and one I gave up on, which was probably also a bad MCU. I find it a nice rewarding hobby.
