So, who actually built the (Happ) Vision Pro monitors ?

I think Vision Pro was just a brand name that Happ gave to these monitors. So far I've seen some stickers with Chinese characters on the tube. ( I don't own one, I am looking for pics on the internet).

What brand is the tube ? Does anybody have a clear picture of the chassis ?
 
It depends on how old your Vision Pro is......the last ones were Tovis (like Ken stated).....before that it was Kortek.....I've also seen a few really old ones with the Segai name. I'm sure there's probably others, but that's the three I've personally seen.

Thanks ! I've got a Kortek I just installed in my Ms.Pac and it looks great.

Anyway, it seems the source was always Korean and not Chinese or maybe Taiwanese.

Clearly both manufacturers dropped their CRT monitor production.

I'm trying to still source CRT monitors from the far-east directly. Looking into doing a group-buy for European collectors. I found 1 (one) lead so far that still sells them.

Any other tips where to find them ? The source I found doesn't have 19" or 20" but only 21" available. Will these fit in the place of original 19" monitors ?
The thing is that f.i. my Kortek (which is mentioned as 20") has it's CRT code start with A48 (so 48 cm. diagonal) but f.i. a much older Hantarex has a A51 codes tube, but they don't seem that different in size (I know it's only 3 cm. in diagonal difference).
 
I know a lot of the later Wells-Gardner monitors were stamped with "made in Malaysia"....though, I have no idea, by who.
