So, can this damage CRT screen?!

[DevilDan83]

From what I hear, a strong enough magnet canpermanently bend the iron mask behind the screen.

[DevilDan83]

I heard, the monitor is OK. I haven't seen it turned on after that but the exposure was not too long. But don't do it with your own monitor anyway.

Sorry, works only on CRT. I guess it bends the iron mask behind the glass.

did it to my tv how do i fix it plz help

Magnets should not bend mask inside the tube, but they will magnetize it, so electron beams will deviate and the picture will be ruined. If magnet was really strong (like neodymium), built-in degauss function wont help, only strong fading AC magnetic field.

theres an option on all those crt monitors to degauss the monitor back to a normal state. what this does is that it refreshes the monitor really hard to get any exposure to a magnet off.

I did it in a TV

xD

This video should have been titled "How to ruin a CRT screen permanently" This is a very stupid thing for anyone to do unless its an old monitor they're planning on throwing out because this will cause permanent damage to the screen and the degauss feature will not reverse this in most cases.

Does it damage the new lcd screens?

[anakinseviltwin]

@DanielDaniel1 Well, if you did it to a CRT computer monitor, you would be fine, because CRTs have a built-in degausser. But TVs dont/ your fucked.
