    Wrong ccfl lamp frame

    Hello,
    I ordered some lamps from internet but the frame that has the lamps is bigger.
    Is there anyway to cut the frame without hurting the lamps. Or anyway to fit those in the monitor(maybe I am doing something wrong)

    I'd swap the lamps themselves in their frames. Just be careful. These 3mm glass tubes are extremely fragile.

      I am trying to avoid swap the lamps because I broke 4 lamps in the past.

        IMO removing the lamp is easier than say cutting the metal frame with tin snips. Hard to tell from your picture if the tubes are potted in or just placed there on some double sticky tape. If the latter then it should be fairly easy to remove them by gently heating up the metal frame with a heat gun. I use this awesome precision heat gun for everything from peeling off stickers and scotch tape to heat shrinking insulation tubing to even desoldering IC chips from printed boards:

          I finally swap the lamps but now my screen has blue light in a part of it at the begiining and then it kind of fadi and then a white box go up and down ( I think it's the no signal box).
          Does anyone knows what could be that?

                    It's a Milwaukee 1400 heat gun. There are plenty of them on ebay at any given time.

                      the one i linked is better, you can set the temp & airflow.

                        callouts?

                          Yeh - I had not come across it either

                          definition for callout
                          Explanation:
                          callout - A pointer, verbal or graphical or both, to a component of an illustration or a text object.

                          I think this applies to both UK and US English


                          Hmm UK English ?????

                          It means the label put on the picture - I usually fumble something using Paint
                          but I am sure there are better programs

                            the best is GIMP
                            http://www.gimp.org/

                            and i think the english would be "highlighting"

                              Agree. I've had my eyes on Leister heat guns for quite some time now but just couldn't justify the expense. With the one in your link @ only 42 bux I might give it a try. I like the tightly focused heat source and the temperature regulator is nice to have. Need to find the ~120v version though...

                              No, highlights and callouts are not the same thing.

                              I use callouts extensively in my posts like for example here. For that I have to resort to creating pdf documents which are time consuming create and clumsy to open. I tried making callouts in graphic editors like for example FastStone but they would come out blurred. The callout in the OP looks sharp and crisp, that's why I asked the OP which program he used.

                                  Can you explain the problem with the cable? There was someone else who mentioned their monitor backlight showing Blue, I wonder if their problem is the same as yours.

                                        Problem

                                        This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                                        Greetings everyone,


                                        I have a HANNSG Hi221 monitor that exhibits two seconds to black issues (backlight goes off, display is still on as confirmed by shining a flashlight on it) with some additional oddities...


                                        The monitor failed on me with a standard "2 seconds to black" some time ago prompting me to initially replace most of the electrolytic capacitors (some of them were bulging/leaking).
                                        Things kinda sorta worked for a night, then the problem returned along with some flickering and "buzzing" noises.

                                        Upon closer inspection...

                                        Hi,

                                        This monitor previously is my main working monitor which i have been using for 8~9 years. Yesterday, when i switched on my pc from fresh to power on, the monitor is just black no display. I started dismantle to look inside the monitor power board but nothing looks suspicious or burnt. So i took my external ccfl inverter to try to power the monitor ccfl lamps which consisted of 2 lamps on upper part and 2 lamps on the lower part.

                                        Found out the upper ccfl lamp which is supposed to connect to cn304 on the power board did not light up. Then i installed a used working...

                                        by Kemer
                                        Hello, I removed the graphics card from my laptop and I want to heat it in the oven. What I want to ask is, is it okay to heat the card without removing the metal mounting frame on it?

                                        As you can see in the photo, there is a plastic (black) gasket between the metal frame and the card. It sticks the frame tightly to the card.

                                        I previously removed the metal frame while heating it, but it is quite difficult to separate it from the surface it is attached to. If there is no problem, I do not want to remove it.

                                        What worries me right now is the possibility that...

                                        Summary

                                        Portable devices, such as notebook computers and personal digital assistants are developed rapidly nowadays, which places an increasing demand on display technology. The LCD with cold cathode fluorescent back lighting satisfies the requirements on display performance, size and efficiency.

                                        The backlight inverter plays a crucial role in supplying the power to the lamps of these flat-panel displays.

                                        The frame and bar ferrite cores, described in this brochure, are especially designed...
