Umm, scratches head and changes mental gears from server setup and testing to edge repair mode.

So the LEDs are in series hence the need for higher voltage. I am assuming the PE battery is a nominal 7v which doesn't give much leeway for discharge and running anything else - WiFi etc.

I must try and track down that A84A - or is it an AB4A? and see if it is a pulse switch or something like that. If it is then we need to know what switches it on since it can be controlled to shut off the screen. I'll see if someone in the office can track it down - hopefully it isn't a generic number.

Now back to keeping Co in business.
