To get a touchscreen jukebox up and running, you have a couple of options.
1. Buy a native touch screen monitor
These can be fairly well priced on eBay or mega bucks from outlets. I use a 15″ ELO touchscreen monitor which I picked up from ebay for around £100. Cracking deal in my opinion.

I have been in touch with an ELO distributor and their screens are not cheap new. Priced at around £250+ each. The prices are not much different on eBay for new. You can pick up used ELO monitors for around £100+ on eBay. Try searching for kiosk screens, or POS screen. They are often ELO but not labelled as touchscreen monitors. |

I’ve seen several touchscreen monitors knocking about eBay and every time I am tempted. I think these things could be really neat. A 15″ LCD monitor takes up a fair bit of surface or wall space. This thing could be mounted to the underside of your kitchen cupboards, or placed on a shelf. They are pretty neat looking, but I’ve not had any first hand experience, so cannot comment really on quality. A lot on eBay are from china so check postage costs before buying! |

Transform your existing monitor with a touchscreen adaptor kit. These are devices which you put over the top of your existing monitor. It can be an ancient monitor or a newer LCD one. They hook over the top and plug to your PC through the USB port. Again, I’ve not had any experience with these, but I have heard they are not as accurate as a native touchscreen monitor. If you’ve had experience with these kits, please comment below! |
Of course, you do not need a touchscreen interface at all for a jukebox. Simply use a mouse as normal!
