Zez Retro | Always Discharge Your CRT Tube Several Times! @ZezRetro | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
This is a short video to remind y'all to take precautions when working on a CRT TV.
High voltages can build up underneath the anode cap and you need to ensure you discharge the tube in a safe way before you work on it.
In this clip, Steve from @RetroTechUSA is discharging a tube live on stream and we see it spark not once but twice! In fact, this tube sparked 4 times before the charge was eventually drained.
If you would like more information about how to safely discharge a CRT tube, please watch this classic video from Steve. In fact, this is the video which taught me how to build a discharge tool before he and I had even met. He really is the master of CRT repair.
