Turbo 30 Question abouth making it BL
I just got a used Turbo 30 and was wondering if I could just go to a electronic store and buy a new lcd display to make it a BL. It is really hard to read the screen. Has anyone done this or can anyone let me know what I need to do it? I am very good at soldering and if I think it is over my head then I would take it somewhere to have it done.
Thanks

Just send it in to CE and have them upgrade it to the Turbo 35 BL

Upgrade to T35 is like $200 I believe, but a Backlit screen upgrade is only like $35, I had it done to one of mine, and it is nice.

Since I already have a T35 I think I iwll just go for the Blacklight upgrade.

You mean they will upgrade a T 30 to a T 35? Can someone tell me more details?

The upgrade includes new face, backlite, new software for 35amp discharge and actual resistance. Maybe a few other thing, but I am not exactly sure. I know some people sent in their T35BL's and had them upgraded to the new Stealth T35 for $60.

What does the Stealth Have that the T35 Doesn't? I thought it was all Cosmetic?

Yeah, it is cosmetic. But people still had it done anyway.

Someone had mentioned that they made some small internal changes, but i don't remember the guys at CE mentioning that when i was down there. I may go down there one more sometime in a while, and i'll be sure to ask.

The real difference: they painted the case black and made a really, really, really stupid looking faceplate.

Just keep telling yourself that and everything will be OK.

the new one is better than the "neck-car" one, personally I like the one with the F1 on it the best, from the T-30
they told me over the phone that there are some internal differences when I was inquiring about upgrading from my T-35 to a T-35BL
BTW I have a custom faceplate, looks like graphite
