Mobile Tech specializes in the component level repair of all makes and models of “out of warranty” computer monitors and terminals, as well as industrial monitors and flat panel displays.  We also repair monitors for specialty equipment such as CNC lathe monitors.  We used to say, “If it has a tube, we'll try to fix it,” in fact, we still go by this rule.  Since this is what we do, we are very good at it and are the only company in the Clear Lake area that specializes in this market. Although we are located near Houston, we happily ship and receive throughout the nation.  We even include a 90 day warranty on our repairs.

Mobile Tech has structured prices so you know what to expect.   We call them flat rates.  There are no hourly rates, no hidden costs, no bench fees.  In the consumer electronic repair industry there is a saying that if the repair costs less than forty percent of the  replacement value, then get it repaired.  After a market study, we have determined that our rates fall well within this range.

It's generally better to repair than to replace for a number of reasons.  Monitors and terminal displays should have a life of ten to fifteen years.  LCD screens should last even longer. All it takes is a tiny component to render a monitor useless.  Until the tube or main transformer fails, it would be wise getting the unit repaired.  Repairing would make your company ecologically friendly by reducing the amount of computer junk in our landfills.  All monitors and terminals contain potentially dangerous heavy metals.  Lastly, repairing will save you money over buying a new monitor or flat panel display.

We repair computer monitors for businesses as well as individuals. We have specialists with over 10 years of experience that can fix your equipment right - the first time. Shipping is available anywhere in the world, call for freight quotes..

Monitor Information
If you are reading this text right now than you are looking at some kind of computer display. The computer display associated with a desktop computer is often called a Monitor. A monitor is in many ways very similar to a television in the way it displays its signal. The monitor is a very important purchase because you spend all of your computing hours staring at it. When you purchase a monitor you have to know for what kind of computing you tend to participate in. Here are some of the questions you should ask yourself when considering purchasing a new computer monitor:

* How many hours a day do you use your computer?
* Do you use your computer for graphic imaging?
* Do you use your computer as a business tool?
* How many MB of Video RAM (Video Read-Only Memory) does your video card have?
* Do you wear glasses?

Size and Resolution
When looking at what size monitor to purchase you really have to understand how you use your computer. If you use your computer for countless hours on end it is better to purchase a larger monitor in order to place less strain on your eyes. Another thing to take in to consideration is whether or not you use your computer system to manipulate graphics files or desktop publishing. These are also situations where a larger size monitor will suit you well. If you only use your computer a few hours a day for recreational purposes it may not be as vital for you to have a very large display. For the average user like that a good 15inch or 17inch monitor should suit your needs.

A very important thing to realize is when looking at the size of a computer monitor is that the listed size does not tell you how large a viewing area you actually have. For example most 15inch Monitors only have about 14inches of viewable screen image, while most 17inch monitors have a viewable area of about 16inches. To get a good idea of exactly how much viewing area your monitor has you should always ask about the viewable image as opposed to just the monitor size.

Remember if you use your computer a lot you should definitely consider purchasing a larger monitor such as a 17 inch or higher.

Maximum Resolution

The next feature that you should take into consideration is the resolutions that the monitor is capable of displaying. There's no point in purchasing a gigantic monitor when it is only capable of displaying 800x600. Remember the higher the resolution your monitor can support the more available desktop space there will be on your computer. If you deal with large high quality images you should have a monitor that can display extremely high resolutions. Some monitors are capable of displaying resolutions as high as 2400x1200. Of course on the other side if your smaller monitor can display a very high resolution it will look so tiny that you won't be able to see anything at all. Here are the maximum resolutions that certain size monitors should support:

* 14 inch = 800x600
* 15 inch=1024x768 or 1280x1024
* 17 inch= 1280x1024
* 19 inch =1600x1200
* 21 inch=1900x1440

You also have to make certain that the video card you own (or plan on owning) can support the resolutions you wish to use at the color depth you require.

Mobile Tech can provide you with a high quality display and graphics adapter for your computer that will be comfortable for your eyes.
