tried CCFL no go. The black and white is fine, but I use a lot of coding videos rather than reading the documentation (I guess I could be less lazy) and color coded python, Java, etc is soo nice.

    They do, but I don't want to mask symptoms if they are creating issues in other physiology. I am convinced the issue is neural entrainment. the LED incapacitator can cause similar issues, and its mechanism of pathology is supposedly entrainment (though its hard to find research because its still classified)

        I could probably make one in an hour with an Arduino board I have. Only hard part is sourcing enough horrible blue LED's and a diffuser.

            It's only a matter of time before light induced harm is used as malware, if its not already.

              welp, I have access to an EEG, if you build it I could hook myself up and you could zap me and see what my brain does... If that aint science I don't know what is

                MagnuM I find ccfl just as bad. Lucky for me I don't have to work on a computer all day. Almost all ccfl's use pwm. Actually up to about a month ago I wasn't even using a computer. I was only using my cell phone. I'm waiting for that clear ink technology to come out. Or maybe e ink will speed up and become cheaper. Nothing is better to my eyes then reading my Yotaphone 2 in the sun. If that onyxmax book pro was cheaper I would be interested. I was considering buying it but reviews aren't the greatest on it.

                    never used the Boox Max 2, but I have Dasung paperlike Pros, and they are a life saver. The speed is great, and looks to be much better than Boox Max 2, but I cant be sure. I pretty much only use Eink at this point. I was going to have to change career before I got them.

                        ShivaWind I looked around for them, they are hard to obtain and are quite expensive for 13in screen. Do they work with everything? Like all win 10 version, all different graphics cards etc... you just plug it into anything that has hdmi and the headache is gone?

                            ShivaWind I saw a review comparing the Dasung and book Max 2 and it looked like the book Max 2 was faster. Either way whatever works at this point. I was going to buy both at one point but I'm going to wait a little bit longer. The clear ink will be killer if it comes out. 33 fps and color no back light. Capable of playing video easily.

                                JTL The people who make LED billboards seem to have an endless supply of horrible blue LED's. A couple in my town have had to be taken down because they caused REGULAR people to have accidents, this is a neural weapon.

                                    jasonpicard The clear ink will be my literal dream. I'd still have to contend with ambient lighting, but just putting an incandescent bulb or daylight on an ink screen is my DREAM.

                                        Gurm yeah I hope this clear ink actually happens. Supposed to be 3rd or 4th quarter of this year.

                                          It is a total solution. It's just HDMI as long as you have the Pro or HD (not yet available outside of china). plug it in to HDMI and it works just like any other monitor as far as performance, though there are only 16 shades of gray. there are different gray scales to choose from by pressing a button, and you usually need to do that when watching a video that is dark. I don't know if ClearInk will work for me or others who have a problem with flicker, but I will try it. the set and hold aspect of Eink is what makes it flicker friendly, Clearink is just LCD with a mirror instead of a backlight (and stacked pixels rather than sub pixels) the stacked rather than sub-pixel arrangement makes it worth a try. I will make a post about the Dasungs, because for me it put me back in the game. If I switch from my Benq to the Dasung, its an immediate release behind my eyes. If I stay away from LCD for and entire day, I'm like a new man. The problem for me is the headache is delayed. I can feel that I am causing it, but it kicks in the next morning, sometimes so bad I can't get out of bed. This has never happened when using only Eink. the Eink acts as a sort of Flicker Scope, allowing you to see where the flicker in the video image is occurring, because it refreshes slow enough to capture FRC and other sources of flicker.

                                            Clear ink is doing a presentation April 12. Hopefully we get something good out of this.

                                            My question is "does having android running on my monitor introduce a delay?"
                                            if the answer is no, I will buy one. This reviewer seems to be doing a feature comparison. The Dasung is just a monitor, and that is all I care about. If the Boox Max2 works better as a monitor than what I have I will switch, but I think it has a lag.

                                                jasonpicard
                                                If you live in the US most states have funds for "Occupational Rehabilitation" things like wheel chairs, etc. an Eink monitor would probably qualify.
