I've been using the NASA/Clipper displays for about a year now. Just wanted say that they work great and are very visible in all light and at all angles. I use the tactical wind display and data repeaters for SOG/STW. Unfortunately they have yet to produce an nmea depth repeater (although have promised em they will). They are all 0183 so I parallel my sensor output between a display and the pi so I still have display even if the pi/openplotter were to fail. I don't work for the company or sell their products, just offering an opinion. I recently bought a Garmin data a display to function as my depth display and I have to say the NASA/Clipper displays are larger, clearer and easier to read. And they can be found for around $110 each new. My advice with these and any displays is to not try and pipe all your data to each display. There's a fair amount of overhead in parsing through 0183 sentences and these displays were likely not engineered for a ton of computing.
