small VGA monitor

Anyone know where I can find a CRT VGA monitor with a 5 to 8 inch diagonal screen size?

You can find 9-10" SVGA/VGA CRTs with a bit of effort on Ebay.

Monitors in this size while often used in POS (Point of Sale) systems are harder to find but they are out there.

I have a couple of this size remaining from previous acquisitions destined for bartop mini cab projects.

Best of luck with your project. I will keep an eye out for ya and post here or PM if I locate an extra one.

Be aware that they usually go for more than you might expect.

That is a deal. Every time I've bothered to look for them, they're more like $40-$50 each.
