I have found a supplier (in the UK) for the exact sized EL panels as 
replacements for the pathetic ones in the Argonaut II and Delta. The 
colour is a pale blue-green, similar to the ones on Lumibrite watches.

I did the replacement last night and it took me all of 20 minutes. I 
just cut the two leads, slid the old one out, slid the new one in and 
re-soldered the leads. If you don't fancy soldering the leads, the panel 
has a fly lead with a mini 2-pin socket.

It's transformed the display.

If any of you need any more information, give me a shout.
