Television Question

<< < (5/8) > >>

Avinitlarge:
I have discharged a tube trough my body twice. Belive me, It hurts, ALOT.
The 1st time I stuck the screw driver under the EHT cap, I was touching the shaft of the screw driver. The 2nd time I cut straight through the EHT lead just after turning the set off.

If I am doing any work on a TV or monitor, I always discharge the tube to be on the safe side

Now I know it's good for electrolytic caps to short them, especially the bigger one's, but I don't think we can see a CRT as an electrolytic cab.

However, I'd suggest to go with the resistor/HV probe method to be safe.
