Great way to reuse an otherwise thrown-out laptop LCD panel!
This is a fantastic way to reuse what would possibly otherwise be thrown in the trash or "recycled."Pros:* There was nothing to "set up," at least not with the panel I have. You simply connect everything as is in the seller's product photo and connect a video source. With the exception of the LVDS cable, the connectors will only fit the correct receptacles on the driver board, oriented the correct way. The LVDS cable (board end, not display panel end) will physically fit several different ways, but as long as you pay attention to what you're doing and connect it such that the dot painted on the connector aligns with pin 1 of the headers marked with the text "LVDS OUT" on the driver board, you shouldn't have any trouble.* There is a remote included, which can be optionally used in place of the tact switches/buttons on the remote control board. An LED on this board displays power status, as well as reflects remote button presses.* The On-Screen Display provides the expected basics picture controls (brightness, contrast, hue, saturation), as well as aspect ratio adjustments (4:3, 16:9, auto), color temperature (9300K, 6500K, custom), OSD settings (Language, position, transparency).* Negligible heat output from board. The display panel controller chip produces a barely perceptible amount of heat after about 10min of use.Cons:* The cabling to the panel is not protected. I'd recommend you sheath this in poly braided tube or some sort of protective conduit. The wires are very small gauge.Notes:* Be wary of certain HDMI video sources if you're intended use is for watching TV/movies: I connected this to a Roku 3 and while the interface displayed fine, unsurprisingly, content-protected video did not (which was anything I tried on YouTube, Amazon Video and Hulu). Instead, a blue screen with the text "HDCP unauthorised. Content disabled." is displayed. Viewing the same video connected from a Linux PC, however, worked fine.* This was tested with an LTN145AT10 (Rev H01) panel from an older HP Pavilion Laptop at 1366x768.

Quick Easy and Worked Instantly!
For this being used to re-purpose a laptop LCD screen and plausibly add HDML/RGB/RCA/ etc ports all at the same for under $30-40? Honestly a truly amazing product. I had checked out similar models or comparable setups on aliexpress but their 80 day shipping window didn't really entice me, even with any price differential.As long as you match up the type of apartus/screen/LCD type/ specifically regarding the Signal interface:LVDS (1 ch, 6-bit) , 40 pins part, you can order a 'generic' version of these circuit boards and with VERY little effort, have a secondary screen up and running in minutes...just make sure you double check the pin count as some are 30, 40, 50, etc.And go ahead and just order the power adapter 'most popular' listed with the adapter itself because even if you may have numerous power sources around the house, why take the risk of overloading or frying something that is rather delicate when it comes down to it so, just take your time, choose wisely! And Amazon sure seemed to have just as viable of products that came within 4-5 days vs. 60+. If you really need to save $7? That's on you. Thanks again for a wonderful product!

Good product, missing any instructions
Seems to work well but has no instructions, it is fairly self explatory but when it came to plugging in the lvds into the control board I didn't know what pins to plug it in to on the header, luckily another review was able to explain it

Appears to work but doesnt. Seller doesnt respond to questions.
I'm confident that the device works however, there were no instructions included with the controller. I was informed by the seller that it is compatible with my screen but to date have not been able to get it to work. I'm also not sure if it needs an inverter as attempts to contact the seller went unanswered.

It works
Important:To properly connect the LVDS connector to the board, the red wires should occupy pins 1, 2, and 3.Pros:-HDMI input works-VGA input works-LVDS pinout printed on bottomCons:-Remote has a narrow beam and pretty much has to be pointed directly at the receiver-Wasn't easy to figure out how to plug the LVDS connector to the board-High-pitched whine when the screen is onOther thoughts:I didn't test the RCA video input because i didn't have anything on-hand that outputs to RCA, but the HDMI and VGA output works just fine. I'm not sure if the remote was for a different board, or if something's broken/not working, but I did remove the plastic piece before trying and checked the battery voltage (3.3 volts) to make sure it wasn't dead. The LVDS connector pinout on the bottom of the board helped me figure out how to connect the LVDS connector to the board; I might've went ahead and tried plugging the red dot on the connector near pin 1 if it weren't for the printed pinout.Update (9 May 2020):I happened to be double-checking the remote again, and when i pointed it at the receiver, it turned on (it was off beforehand). I didn't realise the remote's beam would be so narrow when I first got it, so I thought it wasn't working or something.

Don't throw away a good LCD...revive it with an LCD Driver Board
This board is exactly what was needed to make use of the LCD display from an Acer laptop with a bad motherboard. It took just a couple minutes to hook everything up and turn it on. Connected a new laptop to the controller via HDMI and it worked surprisingly well. This device will turn an otherwise useless display into something that can be hung on a wall to display photos or used as a second monitor. Highly recommend this product!

Use the set up as described by other folks.
Out of the box and attached to a raspberry pi in under 10 minutes. The supplied remote has a small learning curve, but all ina all a handy purchase to re-use the LCD display from a now defunct laptop.
