 + I spent over a month trying to recreate them using a spare reciever card
 + 
 + It did not work, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIGURE IT OUT WITHOUT FIRST TALKING TO @dbynoe, there is no recovery possible, YOU WILL DESTROY THE DISPLAY, no take backsies. I spent a lot of time to build this, a ton of hours figuring out how to make it work, and a bunch of hours, donated a decent chunk of cash to buy the sender card. DONT FUCK IT UP. thank you.
 + 
 + Rule 6. Limit brightness to below 20%, 100% will draw up to 30amps.
 + 
 + Rule 8: note that that you have been made aware of a very limited subset of the potential hazards contact @dbynoe on talk/slack if you really want to play with this.
 + 
 + Rule 10: the password is the numbers of the above rules in order, only change settings under screen display (brightness, but keep it under 20%) or output area of image
