14- or 16- segment LED display elements with common cathode

[Andreas Böttcher]

High together,

for a private project I need some LED display elements (14 or 16 segments)
with common cathode, ideal in red colour or other, height is not so
important (8 - 16 mm). Such parts are obviously not very common in use
today. So I have problems to purchase it. Does anyone have an idea, where I
can buy such parts?

Best regards,
Andreas

brightness, but only 500+ in stock.
