So, I was looking for a replacement 25" for my WG 25K7000. I saw Billabs website and they offer a 19" 24.8" (wierd size..) and a 27" CRT. Now I know that CRT size is measured by display size, not actual tube size and measured diagonally. So I figured their 24.8" would be just fine. Seems pretty close to 25" to me. Well, I place an order for the BL25C90T and recieve it today. (nicely packaged and shipped by the way) I open it up and this thing looks small!! So I immediatly grab a ruler and measure the display area size diagonally. It measures 22.5 inches! (1st picture) So I measure the whole tube, outside edge to outside edge...at thats 24.8! (2nd picture). What the... I get back on their website to see if I could find a answer. http://www.billabs.com/crts.htm No luck. I then see they offer a 27". My 25" K7000 measures 26.75 corner to corner of the tube. I was thinking that maybe their 27" is measured outside corner to corner? Anyone have a BL27C90T to verify this. My fear is to exchange this with their 27" one and have that one be measured by display size and be to big. They sell a 19" and I would hope that would be picture size measurment, otherwise it would be to small for most applications. Plus, the discription said Curved CRT and its not. Its a VeriFlat as they call it :( I'm going to contact them tomorrow, but the person I was dealing with is very Chineese and hard to understand. Im hoping to get a better answer here with someone that might have been in this problem before.

Hello,

I know that this is a very old thread, but I actually just got my hands on a billabs bl25c90t, and I am totally new to arcade building. The monitor didn't come with a power cord, and I have no idea how to power the monitor. I understand to attach the molex connector to the mainboard of the monitor, but do not know what do with the other molex connectors? Any advice on how to power and install this monitor?

Thank you.
