Working with telemetry, scientific data, programming, writing papers or just casually hacking the Gibson requires one thing: A lot of screen real estate. To allow for that "bit of extra space", I built myself an external 13,5'' / 2256x1504 display. It comes with 2x Mini HDMI Inputs and is powered over USB.
The front is protected by perspex, while the back is just scrap material from a PCB stencil transport. The black straps hold down the eDP cable runing to the display.
The whole project comes in just a shy more expensive than 100 Euros and with that is probably one of the most affordable, external high resolution displays you can get for your moneys worth.
The used display is a NE135FBM-N41 (here on Aliexpress for 70,12 Euro).
After talking with one of the sellers on Aliexpress I got them to re-program their dual Mini HDMI controllers for this display - which can be had together with the requires eDP cable (here on Aliexpress for 30,07 Euro). It just nicely plugs together and then works just out of the box. You will just need to get yourself some Mini HDMI to HDMI Adapters and build a case. All in a all a very worthwhile project. Have fun!
