Galaxy fc-347 “Blue” frequency counter..

Post by Raverrst »

Hi all.
Galaxy Fc 347 frequency counter with Blue LEDs, has anyone replaced the Blue 7 Segment display LEDs for Red or know what part number they are? I know this could be done with the older generation Green 7 segment displays LEDs ..

Yes it can be done. I've had a couple done in the past. I have several of the red ones. They are a bit fiddly to fit but they look great when there done

Please do tell of the Red ones you’ve used 🙏

As for the Red LEDs cobraworks are selling please tell me if I’m wrong but I don’t believe they are the same pinouts as the “blue” LEDs, think the listing even states this 🤔

It’s abit like it I’m afraid, I can’t even find the specs of the Blues LEDs online, the numbers on the side don’t seem to Correspond to anything!?
