      Hey Chris
      That’s fantastic thanks for the details. I want to use a desktop monitor for my next one but the weight of the boards and power supply was putting me off as it makes the frame need to be so much deeper. Hadn’t realised you could do it that way :)

      Massive thanks, off to google and Ebay I go :)

        another advantage is the new power supply for the monitor - you do not need a 220V input anymore. I can use now a 12V power adapter with a slim cable to the controller board…

              Here is my config for the wunderground weather:

              {
                  module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
                  position: 'top_right',
                  config: {
                      apikey: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', 
                      pws: 'pws:xxxxxxxxxxx18', 
                      hourly: '1',
                      fctext: '1',
                      fcdaycount: "4",
                      fcdaystart: "0",
                      hourlyinterval: "3",
                      hourlycount: "2",
                      alerttime: 10000,
                      alerttruncatestring: "english:",
              	roundTmpDecs: 1,
              	coloricon: true,
              	daily:1,
              	iconset: "colourful",
              	UseCardinals: 0,
              	layout: "horizontal",
              	debug: 1, 
              	sysstat: 0
                  }
              

              But maybe you know what temperature is shown in the top (see pic) or how can I delete this - seems to be a wrong number…

                I ordered the controller via ebay. Only type your display information (in my case LTM220MT05) and you will find a lot of offers (e.g. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p4712.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.XLTM220MT05.TRS0&_nkw=LTM220MT05&_sacat=0 )
                … I think you can also order via alibaba.com.

                  Thank you for the reply!
                  about current the temperature … why it is wrong ?

                    The mentioned temperature was to high. I changed the PWS now and everything is fine…
