Some of those are ones that need a driver IC adding (so be
warned about catalogue descriptions). But when you're getting
an order from o'seas it's so tempting to cough up another $10
for a few bits you'd probably never normally buy. They seem to
be good displays though, and well-packaged in steel cases
with acrylic faceplates so it's worth it. They have jumbo chars
too, not the ordinary 3-4mm. Similar to the last ones I got from
Oatley, which were surplus Fedex weighing terminals. I also
got a bag of miniature multiplexed12-digit 7-seg calculator
displays, not bad - 10 for $2 (1973 date stamp !!!)
