Victron GX and alternative to Touch GX

[Honuz]

Hello all,

I wonder if someone as tested a cheap Chinese touchscreen as an alternative to the awfully expensive Touch 50 or 70 ?.

For example this one : https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005005101968738.html
It got an hdmi in and a USB port that i suppose is used to send the touch information and power.

Someone got an idea on this ? I will not pay 280€ for a 7" Touch 70 .. !

I'm using a cheap, 8" lenovo android tablet through the VRM portal. It's not ideal(a bit slow), but obviously, can also be used for other things.

Yep, i got this solution but would better use a direct Hdmi display and display fuill screen instead of the 2/3 screen only, reason i'm looking on the HDMI+USB solution.
To make your display full screen you can check that :
