What To Salvage From An Old CRT TV 

Dude I love your video. I literally watched the whole video till the end when I NEVER watch videos that are over 15-20 minutes. Thanks for warning us from that high voltage wire. Also your desk is really badass. That music visualizer is epic, paired with your vacuum cleaner, man you have some great potential. Definitely liked, subscribing and sharing the video. It’s a shame that your channel isn’t verified with a hundreds of thousands of subscribers.

Definitely dangerous to release the vacuum by shattering the glass. The industry standard involves removing the red cable (the one that charges the chamber). Where it attaches, there is a small hole where you can use a hammer and a sharp nail to puncture the chamber. This area is reinforced, and has no chance of sending small shards of glass flying.

Im literally disassembling a tv and watching your vid at the same time xD love your content mate.

Crt monitors are treasure

Back in the 80s, in my Radio & TV class, we would hold a pencil tip next to where the flyback wire goes into the CRT. You would get about a 1/2 arc. Had to be careful though, cause the high voltage could burn a hole through the pencil wood seeking ground.

Watched this as suggested on main page, months agi. Now I scraped old tv. Used to throw whole thing. Who knows, maybe I will use some parts. Thanks.

this video was everything I needed and more thank you so much!!!

Those aluminium heat skins are useful

I had a small crt tv with vaccum tubes kept them and the cathode tube and the board itself surprisingly it worked before but not great I believe it had a leak and a bad vaccum tube capacitor and the cord had been cut and missing the dial I just can't part with it wanted it for the tubes

Most stuff in Japan is 100v. You're handy. You should be able to rig up some transformers to step the voltage to where ever you need it to run that solder sucker.

Super Awesome

New subscriber here! Not sure how you aren't more famous!

Thats a lotta components

Nice job desoldering!

Nice choice of music Justin is the shit you ever here his other band Havard Of the South? I subbed based on that factor alone! Great choice of music!

You could take the audio amp ic

So i really hope you learn more about what you disassemble first.... Because there are gasses involved and it doesnt sound like you knew that.. So be careful 😅

And lol at the way you just pulled that board off the TV. Man be careful please. I’d be scared from these fucking capacitors that store power or whatever else that may zap me!!!!! Lol

There much to learn from any man in a poncho hoody . He should sell these . I will buy 1 . U can put your weed in there too!!!

high wat resistor. thanks. part numbers resulting in google being stupid

26 minutes to tell us to remove a flyback 2 half dead caps and a resistor

Was this channel KO'D !

I'm not an expert, but I'm sure this guy is not, mostly nothing of practical use or practice to be gained, in fact his man handling of the inside circuit board was dangerous and should not be taken to be a safe approach, bad cut to shock are possible, it's dirty back there, no pun intended.

I'm an ex AV engineer this was painful to watch tbh at least show how to discharge the thing first

Why tf do you cut wood in the same room you work on electronics? Thanks for the video but please get more space 🤣

que pena , como rompe todo ,.... hay q desarmar RAZONANDO y no destruyendo !!!!!

Why? Why? Why?!!! Why did you destroy a CRT TV that could be fixed? These things are priceless! Also, why are you salvaging electrolytic capacitors from a 20-30 year-old TV? They go bad with time, so saving caps this old is pure nonsense. I’m definitely not happy that you destroyed such a cool piece technology and didn’t even salvage what’s really valuable from it. I use picture tubes (CRTs) from TV’s to replace burned-in ones in arcade cabinets … and you just broke one for the heck of it. One of the most disturbing and misleading videos on RU-vid I’ve seen!
