Cello Electronics (Uk) Ltd Leyburn, North Yorkshire,

We import LCD SKD Kits from China to UK.
We also purchase LCD TFT Screens in China.


Are not the best quality LCD screens grown in Japan or Korea?

I'm interested to learn from their website that hard drives have timers.
That explains the ticking sound when they go wrong ;-).

BTW, beware of knock-off SDHC cards on the web. Even the sellers don't
always realise they are fakes!

I always buy my SD cards and flash memory from our local Novatech, although
they are a make that I have never heard of before 'Veho' I haven't
experienced any problems with them.

Hi,


I would say or think that the multiple re-writes on a limited life memory
card = recipe for expense, disaster and short life.

I think the whole reason people have always used otherwise rather
inconvenient, difficult or risky (subject to shock failures, etc.) hard
drives was for the very reason of multiple re-writing (particularly with
automatic rewind and live pause functionality, etc.).

I.e. use flash cards = flash card ready for the bin within a few weeks (at
very high use); use hard drives = should be good for years of reading and
writing and long-term storage at failure high tolerance temperatures, etc.
(at the cost of being much more prone to physical shock damage, etc.).


Best wishes,




News Reader

The Cello Electronics brand is on par with Alba, poor quality and unreliable and the service offer by the repair company Contrast Technology Ltd isn't much better. Products just don't match other to other main stream brands. On my third replacement product and still problems.
