i like your voice. and i like how you can make every bulletin-- such as this warning about a CRT-- into an urgent actionable request. i look forward to more videos & hopefully longer ones where you go in depth about an issue.

That's why its recomended to leave it off at least 12 hours before opening it.

What if you smash the f*clerk to Peices, will it discharge then? :P
-
The main electrolytic capacitor (large cylindrical component) does usually contain about 300V - 500V with unlimited amperage, which can kill. If you know what you are doing though, you can discharge it with an insulated-handle screwdriver and then it should be safe to handle and still work afterwoods. In some monitors there is a bleeder-circuit, which will discharge the capacitor within an hour or so, but be safe and still discharge it again anyway.

Great quality. =P. Good information though.

@L0vethehater Umm... PC's have used use CRT's also, and if you take apart a CRT it's a high voltage risk.

I was almost going to mention in the video that no, I wasn't shocked. I do want people to understand the danger of disassembling an eMac, many people don't know that a charge stays in the CRT even after being umplugged for days. This is the same danger in taking apart a TV.

I think Macs rule. I wish I could afford a brand new one , the top of the line would be sweet. Even the boot time is better. I think you would be shocked at how fast my eMac boots and shuts down.

I you are buying new, the new iMacs don't even have CTRs, they have flat screens so it isn't an issue with new ones.
But I think Macs are great, especially for artistic stuff like video and pictures.
