As stated, a corded drill will do the job, but also a hairdryer or any other AC tool powering a coil inside. Cheers |

My brother in law had a 27" Vega... hired a guy to work on his fireplace. The guy used the top of the TV as a place to keep his power tools while he worked. Totally fragged the magnetization of the tube and then said it was like that when he got there. ::) |

you want to know how to degauss a tv this old? I did this w/ my ex-gf's tv (unfortunately it had been burnt for so long the color was lost in that spot, but its not green anymore!) First, unplug the tv, let it sit for 3-4 minutes. Next, turn the TV on its side and plug it back in. Turn on the tv, maybe play something for 5-6 minutes. Turn off the tv, and unplug it. Let it sit for another 3-4 minutes. Turn the tv back to its original state and plug it back in. Viola, instant degauss, well sorta. This is a trick my bro got off a forum of shmups players (vertical shmups to be exact.) Works great, and fixes every problem I've seen so far. |
