Ordering a 1000 nits touchscreen from China

[fuchsmi]

Hello!

I'm considering to order a 1000 nits 15.6" touchscreen from china:
https://www.sihovision.com/full-ip65...ch-screen.html

The price is about 550 USD + shipping + vat + customs. So about 900 USD or 840 EUR

Any alternatives?
Anyone interested on sharing the shipping cost (to Austria or other EU)?

maybe have a look at faytec screens. I use a 7", but they do larger: https://www.faytech.com/product/touc...touch-monitor/

I have had a Sihovision 15.6" on board all last season and it worked fine. I would get the IP67 version though just in case. I made a video on it here: https://youtu.be/3y9jBpOEguE

Scroll towards the bottom. Very helpful links regarding screens too.

I've been running the 10.1", 1000 nits, ip67, touch screen from Sihovision for about 8 months now, it stopped working after about 6 months and they sent a replacement motherboard out which I installed and it's working again so be prepared to be hands on if you have a similar experience. Their comms are a bit delayed sometimes but we got there in the end. I was surprised how little sealant there was around the case when I took it apart however there was no sign of moisture inside.

I have one from sihovision and it's been outside now for 1.5 years. there was a crust that flaked off the screen, quite concerning however the screen still works fine. Definitely looks older though.
