A KJDEP habit with a ad on Service 190 has been spotted with a new EDS. This LED style EDS is similar to SBS Transit's. Instead of being yellow, it is orange and the font too is unlike the normal Habit EDS.

Anyone who spotted more buses with this or any other info on it, post here. Smile

(I did not spot the plate no. of the bus as i was on 307, and the window was misty)

Hope that more buses change to this kind of EDS.. The wordings is much clearer than the yellow ones

For all we know, it could be SMRT trial period of the new EDS so when the trial is over & they find it successful then perhaps we could all see the new EDS being implemented on the various SMRT Buses Rolling Eyes

I think the Nissans would need the new EDS the most...
When it does work, you can't see it clearly due to the reflection of the glass Laughing

But this is SMRT we're talking about, they haven't even installed the next bus stop LED display onto Nissans...

Volvo Olympian SG

I think due to the curve top , so its not possible to be fitted with LED

yeah. for spatial reasons, lances dun spot them too. Razz

I;m not so sure this is a good move for SMRTbuses to try out the Transit Media destos. they are after all new to them and may be harder to program than the current yellowish EDS ones. did u know their current one can program chinese chracters....?

Well, maybe it is not a good move if they are planning to refit the habits with new ones. it would simply be a waste of funds. However, if they would be replacing the EDS for the old generation buses, then it would be a good move.

btw, isn't the current EDS most of the Habits are fitted with Transit Media? The others if I am not wrong, is Hanover Displays

Volvo Olympian SG

ELBO is using LAWO EDS Types if im not wrong

Some 0405 uses Mobitec ...
