I just received my new MAX7219 board from Aliexpress. It can handle all the MCP displays. Should make the wiring a little cleaner.

Nice thing !

Please confirm the Power line Problem is solved on this board !!!

( With 4 Boards in a row and the standard Tubes we got a electrical problem in case of the Diode )
Can you confirm with a multimeter that on every Chip the input voltage is the same ??

If YES i will order that . Much more easy as the standard tubes !
Please share experience !
Good Luck !
