Found A Company That Produces Front Lights

I found this company while searching for a replacement light guide panel. They make really high quality front/back lights for use in PDA devices and cell phones. In fact as you can see, they already have a 3.5" frontlight produced. Exactly what we need for a FLU kit.

The only problem is that the company does not have a store. They probably only sell in bulk quantities, and I just don't have the kind of time or money to offer a FLU modding service. I did contact them asking for price quotes, but they haven't gotten back to me. I thought perhaps someone else might have better luck with them.

Mash or Craigix? :rolleyes:

I've talked to them on serveral occasions. They handle the whole chelada, manufacturing and assembly, but the fact that they handle assembly as well is what made it too expensive (in the hundred thousands for a minial order).

I wonder where the people who made the afterburner kit got their supplies from.

 

[GPJosh]

Sent them an E-mail.

I was wondering if you could make an afterburner for the GP32. It is a great system and has a strong homebrew community. (www.gp32x.de).

Thanks,

And recieved Autoresponse back:

Hello and thank you for contacting Triton Labs.

We regret to announce that we are no longer offering the Afterburner nor
its related components for sale on our site. There are however still
other stores selling the Afterburner for a limited time. In the US Ahead
Games (http://www.aheadgames.com) still has kits in stock last we have
heard. You may also want to check Ebay for the kit.

Internationally, Lik-Sang.com may have kits in stock. Performing a google
search for "Afterburner kit" may reveal additional sources for the kit.

We thank you for your interest in the kit, and wish you luck in locating a
source for purchase.

lol you could be sending them hatemail about the afterburner kit and it would still give you the same auto message .

 

[GPJosh]

Hope it goes to a real person after autoresponse, but I doubt it.

I guess you can always just mod a wormlight

Didn't NerdOfNerds make one using an old light guide from a broken PDA? Did he make a tutorial for it?

Edit for poor spelling
