Why is my display so dim?

[Deleted member 473]

In most lighting conditions, it is barely visible. The FoxSat HDR above it has a bright display in a cooler colour. Why is the T2 so awful?

They seem to vary - see HERE (click). You can remove the filter easily if you open the case, then you get a VFD green display if you like that sort of thing - see the Wiki HERE (click). Trying to make a naturally-greenish light emitter into an orange emitter was never going to work very well!

Thanks, BH. I may open the box.

I can definitely recommend going green, and have done so with two of my boxes.

I'd also recommend going green! You can actually see the display when the box is in standby!

It was a slightly more involved procedure than I thought it would be. As long as you're patient and careful you will be fine though.

Just removed it! You are right, they didn't make it easy to remove!

Anyway, I can actually see that it has a display, at last! Nice one, Humax!
