Eco Display Rewards DIY Kit Introduction
EcoDisplay isn’t just one product — it’s a flexible toolkit that lets you decide how deep you want to dive into creation.
Whether you love hands-on DIY or prefer something ready to use right out of the box, we’ve designed two main paths for you.
🧰 EcoDisplay Kit (DIY)
For makers, tinkerers, and anyone who loves to bring ideas to life — the EcoDisplay Kit (DIY) includes everything you need to transform your old iPad into a beautiful touchscreen display.
We’ve prepared a complete set of parts, tools, and step-by-step instructions to make the process clear, safe, and rewarding — even if you’ve never taken apart a device before.
a. The Adapter — The Heart of EcoDisplay
This is the core component that powers your conversion.
Currently available in four models, each adapter precisely matches the display and touchscreen of specific iPad generations (see the compatibility chart above).
It’s what allows your iPad’s original Retina display and multi-touch panel to come alive again through a simple Type-C connection.
👉 Adapter Model Selection: After the campaign is successfully funded, we’ll send a backer survey to confirm which iPad model you have.
Your adapter version (A3, A5, A6, or AA2) will be assigned accordingly, ensuring you receive the perfect match for your iPad.
b. The Tools — Everything You Need
To make the DIY process smooth, we provide two carefully selected toolsets:
b.1 Disassembly Tools
Specialized prying tools and suction pads help you safely separate the iPad’s display and touch layers from the housing — all guided by our illustrated manual.
b.2 Assembly Tools
Once the display and touch panel are ready, these tools help you align, connect, and secure the components into the new EcoDisplay frame for a clean, professional finish.
Every step has been documented in our comprehensive guidebook, with photos and tips from real assembly tests.
c. The Frame — Make It Yours
Each EcoDisplay Kit comes with digital 3D printing files (STL format).
If you have access to a 3D printer, you can print your own frame in any color or material you like — PLA, PETG, ABS, or even wood-textured filament.
Want to match your desk setup or brand color? Just print it your way.
