Best display technology for hot conditions

What technology would be best for a computer display that has to survive for long periods in a hot environment, up to 40C days, 27C nights. Doesn't have to be particularly hi res or pretty, just has to hang in there. TIA

depends. if you can maintain air flow an lcd should do fine, just get a big brand sony etc.

its not the display thats the worry its the power supply. high heat means stressed capacitors and cheep units use 85'c caps

least most have 3 yr wty's so if it fails you can get it repaired or replaced during this time.

do you need an attatched unit or will an external crt work an lcd might but you need one specifically meant for the work and one might expect additional cooling be installed.

One very good monitor manufacture that we use for some clients is Marshall. These monitors are designed to work in very harsh conditions. They have both rack-mount and free standing models.

Many TV broadcasters, security agencies, remote search and rescue services, aerospace industries, and the military use them for remote locations and in harsh environmental areas. They can operate under bright studio lights, or out in the hot sun, at high altitude locations, or they can be used in extremely cold temperatures such as in the far North. Their quality is excellent. Their price also reflects their performance and capability. When you buy a Marshall, remember that the power supply is sold separately.
