I'm curious to see how your experiment works, I have a 1500 Garrett and the backlight in it is not very good. Could hunt later and when it's cooler if I could see the screen.
 
i just went down to my local electronics store and bought
a LED light and a double a battery case came home soldered
the light up and faced it towards the screen works ok but i
need a brighter LED

Hi Garry. I think you have a fortune in the making with that quattro backlight! All I can say is, BEAUTIFUL. Wonderful work Garry! I know this may sound funny, but what would it cost for you to build me one and ship it to me here in the states? I know, I could always just follow your directions that you posted, but I'm a bit on the lazy side sometimes :) But I'm serious about the order for one. It is absolutely genious. I love the headlights for the ground too. Just let me know about a price and I'll gladly pay you for your time. Sincerely, Randy
