Lowe HF150 LCD Backlight Diffuser

Lowe HF150 LCD Backlight Diffuser

This is a diffuser for illuminating the LCD on a Lowe HF-150 receiver.

There is space for 2x3mm LEDs, one each end. I used two green LEDs in series with a dropper resistor powered the VBAT line.

I printed it in clear PETG at 100% infil.  I stuck a white label to the back of the printed part.  I did experiment with putting down a few layers of white PETG instead, this wasn't as good.  I also tried a lower infill but it seemed worse.  The illumination isn't as even as the photos might suggest!  

I used a new transreflective display from RS Components part number 185-0193.
