D&P-OR Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Steve---I just thought of another question. :)------Is there much glare on the screen of the Equinox?-----All the FBS detectors had that problem with the least being the CTX (in that regard).-----Don't remember the Xterras having that problem at all.

Steve Herschbach Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 The large dark LCD symbols and numbers are far easier on old eyes than the CTX display. It is a flat plastic screen and so at the exact right angle it can turn into a sun mirror. Otherwise one of the strengths of the Equinox is the large, readable display. There is a LCD backlight for low light conditions. Low reflective screen protectors come standard in the box. The bottom picture has the screen protector installed (note the “cheater labels” for the setting icons). You can also see improvements in fit and finish in the last photo compared to the earlier prototypes, the most visible being the bezel around the edges.

Cal_Cobra Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I like the screen protector! I've always disliked that the F75 backlight wasn't adjustable, heck you couldn't even disable it. A dealer in Germany was adding an on/off switch for a nominal fee. How's the Equinox backlight? I like that the 800 has different backlight levels, this was implemented very well on the Mak/Nok machines I've used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 It turns out to be hard to get a photo showing the difference because my smart camera keeps auto adjusting the light for me! So here goes but note the background lighting changing in each picture so this is only a fairly good representation of what I am seeing in person. The Equinox 800 has four settings (Off, Low, Med, High) and the Equinox 600 has two (On, Off). Click for larger image... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, that should work fine, might need my patented red anti-glare screen protector though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
