Inexpensive Portable Display?
January 03, 2014, 08:56:58 PM
#1
Has anyone seen an inexpensive and portable (meaning: small) display that one could use to check on rigs that are not responding and are typically headless?
Other solutions that address the same scenario are welcome.
(scenario being: cannot remotely access machine & reboots don't bring it up, ie something is hanging)
Only stuff I've seen is full-monitor-price, which sort of defeats the purpose.

This could be a good one. It has USB input/output.

I thought I looked on eBay...I guess not so much.
I will have to search more. Thx.
This looks more along what I was imagining (and half the price):

I was going to wear it with a keyboard and mouse, like a one man band.
(or make an enclosure)

15" LCDs go for about $25 or less at thrift stores around here.

Yeah it's a bunch of stuff but you can make a small enclosure and then mount the screen creatively. Would be kind of cool.

$57 delivered. Hook the 12v up to a molex plug on the PSU.

I have finally realized that even though a small portable screen would be fun...it is an overcomplicated solution to my simple problem.
In the end I decided on a $6 15' vga extension cable.
It will do the job and prevent moving monitors across the abode.
Thanks to everyone for playing.

I still want to play! This has a HDMI input port:

As well as a keyboard and trackpad that you can use over micro usb. And a battery.

If you want to connect multiple PCs to a single monitor try something like this...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LinXcel-Four-Monitor-VGA-Switch-VS-141A-with-AC-Adapter-US-Seller-FREE-SHIP-/161188689311?pt=US_KVM_Switches_KVM_Cables&hash=item258798359f
$25 = 4 VGA inputs to 1 VGA output (you can find bigger ones if you need more)
