 All right everybody. Hey there. Hey, hey PO 17 and mega cards. Thank you for showing up early today in the chat Hey plate fork That's what it's here for New tubes no not new tubes. These are all Salvaged salvage just tube Reno So we're gonna test a bunch of salvage Tubes I Don't know how many things I trust to that say we're Getting new tubes. That's why you got to get a tube tester and not explode Not blow yourself up when you're using it because I mean I swear I think I've almost cut set this thing on fire twice So I figured if I set on fire the third time I'm gonna do it live So hello Welcome Welcome into my wonderful show here today. Thank you. Thank you all for joining me. I'm of course Steve This is retro tech and if somehow you just like caught the teaser that You're gonna see some CRT testing and You saw a promo for promo for that. Thank you for joining me If you don't mind, please drop a like for me on the chat the stream today if you can That way I can Get the algorithm to push the show a little bit further than normal Hopefully, but anyway either way. Thank you. Thank you again. Everybody who shows up and who normally shows up snuffer stuff I see you here Hello to Tamiru Myrick Spunkin. Hey Christian neck. Hello. Hello from Germany. Hello to you from the United States of America And I'm coming live from Virginia I'm a fatty cat. Thank you for coming in here a little pig Plate fork retro Husk hey there to you too. So thank you all for coming and hello to you from Denmark. Wonderful. I love seeing How many people we can get in here from all over the world? That's always fun. So let me just get Get tell I got some stuff stacked up here for space so far so Gonna have to move my keyboard out of the way for now and How should we do this? How should we do this first off? This is the first tube. I'm testing right here. Let me uh maybe Try not to make the background music too dominant. There we go Okay, I think we're good. It might turn up just a tiny bit. I wanted to hang around the right levels and We close some things out here. So what I've got is I in fact have the B and K precision 4 6 7 CRT tester and Let me flip around cameras. Hopefully this will work It's been a little glitchy on me but what I've got here is a tube tester now this can do things beyond just testing tubes and I Don't want to like knock everything over because again, I'm Low on space, but we're gonna we're gonna do this so I've got this as it comes in this It's like a briefcase try to get a better zoomed out view for you so it's in like half a briefcase here and You can use this model. Hey Samuel G. Thanks for coming You can use this model to test CRT's now there is something wrong with this model as far as Doing anything beyond testing. I don't really trust it for that yet I have gone through and like completely rebuilt this thing and I'm gonna show you the interesting information about that here in a second But this has been completely rebuilt. It's been recapped. It's got a bunch of resistors have been changed the solder's been reflowed and As I said before I have almost caught the thing on fire and shorted out of fuses a couple times accidentally just by testing it and the wrong manner and so it's been fun and This is This has been something that has been like on my list for a while And I tried to use it a little while back and I had a little bit of an accent with it blowing up a tube actually Also, so I put this away and I thought Maybe I'd give it some time give myself some time to relax on it and I come back to it later on This we're gonna do today. I have a bunch of tubes here. I say a bunch. I've got At least four pvms that I we can for sure get test on Including this one right here. That's next to me and you can kind of see in the bottom corner of your screen right there next to my multimeter But before we get to hooking up this tube right here, we're gonna do some things now this particular unit we have again rebuilt and It's not just about having the unit because the unit just comes with this plug right here That looks like this and they're going on my pins from then the Adapter there, but that's normal so it just comes with this plug like this and And You know, it's not as hard to find like this unserviced untested and then without the adapters You actually have to go and make your own adapter And I mean you have to fully make this thing, you know, you have to get special tools To get this all cut and done right get those pins in there and get them drawn out into some cabling And then you have to order these special Connections right here, and I'm gonna show you a little bit more about that in case anybody is wondering Where to get this stuff or get started because there's a great resource out there But that's what I had to do just to do anything. I have you to rebuild this entire machine and then Build this and I want to say this part With all the stuff I had to buy to make one of them and ship everything cost me gosh I bet forty four of your fifty dollars So it's not cheap if you could find somebody who makes them ever it would be nice If anybody does make them and wants to reach out to me I'd be glad to talk to you because these cost a lot of money to make if you're just making one or two of them on your own and So let's uh It is an older tester, that's right Let's so that's that I'm gonna switch out flip over here and tell you where some good resources are it's first off this is the CRT database, which is the It's run by Andy King and it's a great tool here and He's recently I said recently within the last few months posted. Yeah me posted an entire section on his website about These two B and K testers because these are two of the best ones to try to find and use and Hang on a second so We have the four six seven here and this gives you a lot of good information so we go down and there's tips at buyer's guide I Can tell you that this one is from look at this the 70s. This is an old one very old and The fun thing is you could go down here and it gives you the capacitor list the resistors list fuse replacement bulb replacement which I've done all these and then it gives you the directions and things you need for Making your own adapter here Which there's a picture of the one on the website which looks almost identical to mine And so you make this and That's how you connect to the back of the tube Because you used to be able to get something that looked like Well, let's see Something that looked like a neck Socket you used to just get these With this monitor or not this monitor. I'm sorry the tester It wouldn't come with of course the circuit board But it would be a cable adapter that it would attach and you would attach it to the neck board Stutter, I'm sorry the neck socket. It looked like that with wires coming out of it And you would attach that to the back of the tube. So there's a lot of adapters that match even consumer sets for stuff like this, but The thing is is it's difficult Keep and find all those adapters and You don't really have the opportunity a lot of times to just go and buy these adapters so we're going to or you should go and consider making the adapter yourself and That's what I did. That's what I think Everyone should probably do if you're gonna get into this as opposed to trying. I don't know What the alternative would be it's not really gonna work for the trend of Tron because they didn't make an official adapter for the trend Tron Yep the neck Yes, so but there's a lot of good information in here and I also need to give a special. Thank you to somebody. Let me pull up the This gentleman's name because he helped me a lot and I was having a lot of problems with my my machine. I'm not gonna lie but Let me give him a shout out because his name is Sterling Sterling Farance if you ever watch this or Come into a stream or hear anything. Thank you for trying to help me to get this thing run in because basically I was having trouble Testing it calibrating it. So we're gonna do first off is we're gonna check it because just to check The functionality is a hundred percent Just to check out our Tube emissions, which is the the thing we want to check for and maybe even safe to check for shorts Probably if it should auto pop up shorts. I think But if not it will definitely give us emissions tests So I have to plug this adapter again into This cabling that comes right out of the side of the device here okay, and Obviously, there's a calibration for this machine now. I've gone in and calibrated it however What we're gonna do is we're gonna actually check our calibration here We're gonna check it before We do it even though I did the calibration I want to make sure that I get this all set up correctly. So when you set this up there's a Voltage on the setup cut off heater voltage over here. It's on this Sorry it's on this Reading I don't even know why I can't think of the this dial. It's not even a dial but anyway This has what we need. It's gonna. It's gonna. Tell us how much heater voltage we have and we set that by spinning this Dial right here. So we're checking our heater voltage and what we're looking for on this particular Tube today on the heater voltage is right here I don't know if you can see it. It's at the 6.3 We need to be at that 6.3, which is under the bottom line of The green and good and bad. It's right at that yellow right into the green. It says 6.3 in red Yes, thank you gauge. I don't know what was wrong with my head. I couldn't couldn't come up with a silly word all right, so we can Take our homemade adapter and to check the heater voltage we can take our Red probe on our multimeter and connect that to our H2 What's connected to is our H2 and then we'll take our H1 we'll connect that to our black probe on our multimeter let me see if I can get all this in the picture now and What I want to do with my multimeter is turn it on AC mode, okay? AC mode there. You can see it right there. It should tell me 6.3 When I dial it on so the first thing I'm making sure it's turned off on the device and Then I want you to be able to see a little bit more. Okay, that should have everything in the picture. That's important I'm gonna plug this in Okay Everything good everybody ready Okay, let's watch our gauge to be right there right in the middle Almost well not quite middle a little bit to the left of the middle a little bit lower than middle and we'll see what it says here So it's plugged in now. I'm gonna turn to set up So if you just look down here I'm gonna turn this to set up. I think I am there we go All right, I haven't touched anything yet This is the one that sets the heater. Okay? You can tell right now. We're at like six point two And if we look back up here It's six point two two six point Yeah, and we're our reading is it six point three this may come up a little bit But that's not unusual for this one to drift even after I've rebuilt it it drifts a tiny bit so actually right now We can increase it watch as I increase this heater It'll both go up on this meter and the voltage meter here See that Instantly goes up to six point four and it only moved up a little bit where it's right over that six point three Now if I try to go back Maybe I can land it right on six three And it doesn't have to be perfect six point three, but that's pretty darn close Three zero. Oh, there we go. Yeah three there, right? We're right on the money there and That means that we have the correct heater voltage now The heater voltage can vary but six point three is what I've always been told again There's not like a written book on this is that's what I've been told to use is six point three when it comes to these types of tubes these trinochons and Things like that So that's the heater voltage. It is set now before I connect it to the TV or the tube I'll turn it back off and I'll disconnect my meter and that's really all I have to be concerned with is That initial power on and that that is set. Well, there's actually one more thing. I'm sorry But we're not gonna use the multi meter for that we're just gonna go by the meter the gauge right here and What we do there is we go back to setup and we want this to be at 50 volts I've always heard 50 on this G1 which is what we want to do right here. So we want to use this next one G1 and we will turn this down Slowly we hit 50 volts on this This gauge right here Yeah, there's this six point three is one of the most commons So again, that's really this would just this last one from what I understand It would show you if you had a problem when we hook it up If there's a problem with the voltage in the tube and if it was really weak It might already be let reading low on this meter I've not ever seen that but I believe that's what the manual is trying to say When you initially hook this up and set this up if this is going you might have a voltage problem coming from somewhere So this should be set. We'll turn it back off and we're gonna hook up the first tube and The easiest way most of the time is There's really two methods and we're gonna do both of them today the first one would be to take and refer to the actual neckboard from The tube itself or the monitor that you're testing the tube from that's what we have here this This tube I will give you the model number It is the m3 4k be 30x Sony Trinitron tube. It has the blue and white label. It says it's made in Japan and It's 13 inches It's 600 TV lines and it's salvaged from a Sony pvm 1344 q and that 44 q was manufactured in the early 1990s and We're going to Hook this up. We're gonna hook all these probes except one this gray one is for testing only That's why it has the yellow wire on my Plugout because it's not really used but If I take this I can put this on the back of The tube here and I can refer to which pins on this tube Are actually the pins that I need to connect to Because if I look back here if I look back here On the board for example, check it out. We've got and it's not it's not in Normal terms, right? But here's the things that we have to hook to we need An h2 and an h1 and that's right there those two So we need to plug into an h2 and an h1 We also need a g1 and a g2 Okay Now these and many other CRTs will have two Points or maybe even more for g1 You only need to go to one of them. You can actually use both g1s on this running this test I like to do the h1 and h2 on this side and since the g1 and g2 are together on this side I usually hook up over here and then in the middle of that we have If you see there's a k there kb kg kr and It doesn't take much wisdom to guess that this is our colors even though it starts with a k Blue green and red. So that's what we're going to do. We're going to hook up our blue green and red probe From our tester to those our heater tester or heater probes and our g1 and g2 probes So to do that, we just need to refer to this Again, this being one way to do this We're going to refer to this as our index And we're going to hook up our tube based on this pinout from This Neckboard So I know it's going to be probably A bit more difficult to see this But you'll probably just see me watch. I'll be putting these on here so for example I like to start at the top Because I can easily reference which one's the top pin. That's the green pin The green is the top most pin in the middle of the neckboard where it connects to the tube So I will start with my green On my adapter end here And I'm just going to let me show you how this thing works Just going to connect this It's you just squeeze it down like it's an injector right like it injects something And it's got that little nice hook So you hook around the pins The pins on the back of the tube You hook that on there Okay, it says green. I wrote green on it. I made it green. I'm going to hook this On to my Tube right here for green So that's step number one Just come in there like that And it should hold itself sometimes it'll come loose But most of the time it will hold itself Now from there I want to get the blue And the reason for that being is I know for a fact that the blue is next to the green And I can easily attach it over here on this side Right next to it So now I've got blue and green And we can move on to G or a red let's do red now and that will be on the opposite side of the green So it goes blue green and then red Oh, that's not the right one. That's h2. I thought I grabbed this one. Sorry You definitely want to double triple check yourself You only get one shot at this if you put the wrong Voltage down some of this not in test mode usually but if you do anything else you could definitely fry it Test mode if you set it up correctly should be pretty safe Blue green red connected to the back of the tube Now let's go in and connect the others right next to red. We see g1 and g2 on our neck forward And g1 and g2 can be connected right there So that's g2 g1 is gold It just needs to get that untangled a tiny bit That's a problem. You get these things tangled up and they It's like shoe strings So g1 We will connect g1 over here next to the red and g2 finally Next to that okay Now we just need to hook up h1 Just gonna come under here and h2 and h H2 actually comes before h1. So we'll hook up h2 first So it goes skip skip a pin and then h2 Is what it says because h2 and Then h1 Underneath it Kind of nerve wrecking doing this, isn't it? There we go. We've got it. You just double check everything green red g1 g2 blue g1 h2 h1 okay, and then our test So now I've got it plugged up. Now. Let me see what kind of view I can get you Because I want you to be able to see a couple things on here Might turn the lights out At least that one And let's switch back over to desk view And you can see that part, but maybe you can see a little bit I know that's probably nerve wrecking right here This view is awful. I imagine Is it showing me upside down on the screen? But that's how it's hooked up. I'll get it back to the tester here. It doesn't look so crazy And it's hooked up And now Hey, Andy Oh, okay. Well, there you go. Thank you bit of knowledge. I did not know Andy says that you don't have to worry about matching h1 with h1 and h2 with h2 So you can you can cross those as long as you're on an h and won't matter That's cool Thank you All right. So like I said, we've checked it all to run this test. We should just turn this thing on to set up And then Okay Oh, I didn't even know there was one for this trinitron Cool. Yeah, I've never seen most of the time. I never see the adapters Okay, we got it hooked up We're gonna go from that to again set up and just watch the meters and make sure that you know, see Like this one might take a second to come back up to 6.3 The gauges or we may have to turn it up a little bit Once we now have it connected to the tube Right Just checking out the tube here Okay Everything looks fine on these dials right now make sure I don't short anything out Right and then We should just pop this over to test and it should give us a reading for each color I believe We're gonna set the cutoff first actually So I want to set the cut offs. That's right where all these are Right over the zero mark So we got a set cut off next now And That one's dropping Okay, you see that I'm adjusting I'm adjusting these above and or below each color now Oh, here we go. We've got all the experts with this machine. Everybody Is in the house now. Hey del So if we set cut off that still looks a little bit high You can give it a second the same thing over here when I set that back down to the middle between bad I think it's supposed to be right at that Or is it supposed to be up here where it says set tracking? You guys want to tell me I can't remember now We'll wait a second because I can't remember whether I need to do this I thought I was supposed to set it at the white line But I might be supposed to set it at the tracking line, but that's not the tracking All right. Well I know it's not going to hurt it because it's actually lower on the dial So let's just test it. I'm not running anything else besides a test, right? to check the Yeah, it's calibrated. I guess I showed off And all you do is flip it over right and it just tells you right. I'm not actually doing any kind of Recharging anything we're just doing analysis right now So the question is when you set after you go just to test it and you're setting each color Do you set it to the white? line right there at basically between bad and yellow Or do you set it at the set tracking point? So if you catch that and let me know I think that this sounds fair First notch on the dial. So like all the way down in the red All right. I'm confused. So as it goes. Sorry. Let's go back to set cutoff Is this these are set too high right or they need to go down here? That's right Okay Isn't it down all the way down there Right There we go bottom ticks. Thank you. I think that's right I'm gonna um I believe this is the right way and then we turn it on Oh look Well, that came up much different, didn't it? Basically says everything's bad on this tube right Because that's much different than So this is Set cutoff. You're right. It is at one Okay, let's try this again I think I said it just too low, but I don't think that they're very good. I see what it's saying set it at one That's why they're so low I don't think this is good. This is a great tube or anything That seems more logical. Honestly, this does Because this tube was used it has a tiny bit of burn on it So that would make more sense if you set the cutoff at one division Yeah, the heater voltage is at 6.3. Thank you. Yes So the green is in the yellow, right See that cool. Yeah, then I said it right first notch So zero is right there. So you go to the first notch right there. That's what I said them all on And that would make sense. This is not a new tube at all. It was used a lot and it came out of a 1344 q that someone brought in and had asked me To switch out with a salvage with a different tube that actually read good on all these and looked much better So you definitely think we did all that correctly I think we did all that right. We're about to try a different to same tube Same exact tube, but hopefully a newer one that will read better On this one, but that's how you would set that up And thank you to the Thank you to delusional or del and andy king for showing up and Yeah, that's what I was I was hoping because the first thing I did was I put them up too high where you saw andy And they were reading still good and I was like, well, that doesn't Really make a lot of sense. But yes, thank you del and andy for helping out Yeah, I don't know that like If I rejuvenate this thing from this, I'm not because sure that it would work like I'm uh I'm probably not comfortable running that part of it yet So what I'd like to do is I've got to get some other ones We'll find one. It's even worse shape than this. I know the laugh. Well, I'll have to laugh but this This tube we may once I get the hang of this thing and make sure it's all good then I'll Maybe try and this would be a good tube to to test now It didn't have terrible burn, but there was definitely screen burn on it. It wasn't like something crazy bad but That's our test readings, so we are just barely in the green on green so that what you could Zap that green line. I know why'd I just don't know what to do. I would just like These things yeah, but not today I did not have time today Let me tell you something. Okay, we're gonna take a second. I want to tell you about the dumbest thing I have done in a long time and Right. Yeah That's very important Andy. Yeah, definitely. You have to have the mission. You have to have the things set correctly or it won't it will give you Wrong readings. You'll think you have a better tube than you do Zap it. Hey, bribe but anyway, I went and I had a customer that was sending me some money and paying for something and I I sent them They wanted to pay through zeal and I sent them the wrong phone number and They sent the payment. It wasn't a little bit. I mean it was 500 bucks So we got lucky because The number I typed in had never set up zeal and we were able to get them payment Corrected, but I was worried all morning Because I got up early and I sent the message. I usually triple check those things that I'm like, what the heck How did I? How did I do it? Sniffer stuffer you're supposed to be able to like technically I should be able to put this on the clean imbalance and run it right I mean it does tell you This is a tube. I don't really care about to be honest I wouldn't use it. You know, let's see what the let's see what What the website says here. Let's go back to the website So we can pull up the manual because it does tell you Right, this the one So we've gone through here And if we look here, it says over on this side to select You can rejuvenate clean imbalance select your switch select value of high voltage to be used for rejuvenate or clean balance Let's see I know I had all right set up to cut off did all this stuff emissions test tracking tests Which I'm not interested restoring the picture too Oh boy, here we go guys The model 467 employs three restoring functions remove shorts clean and balance and rejuvenate All three are available and restore position of the function switch So you have to turn the function switch down here to Restore so you go over here where it's on test right now you'd go down to restore Let's continue reading So set the function switch to restore observe the g1 dash k lamp k lamp 16 And uh, there's lamps g1 Oh Okay There's a g there's a shorts g1 k lamp If it's not glowing If it's not glowing a high resistant leak leakage is indicated Use the clean and balance procedure Okay, so if there's no we have to stop if there's no Uh Yeah, that's what I was thinking Andy absolutely because I did this before and I absolutely did too Uh Yeah, it's not unsellable. I mean it is unsellable. That's what I was thinking because this is not um This is not something I would care about too much Uh I don't think there's any shorts on it though. We'll see so first you do it. You observe you Stick it in restore mode. We'll see if it says The lamp glows push the remove shorts button and release. Oh, that's the remove shorts button We don't want to remove shorts. Sorry clean and balance Set the function switch to restore position. I was reading the wrong section. I'm sorry everybody So Cleaning and balancing is a low energy restoring operation. So this is like the lowest level, but trinitrons can Basically short out from this function It can't happen So we could Destroy this tube and it wouldn't be like it would blow up in my face. At least I don't think so We're gonna set the function switch to restore push the rejuvenate clean balance switch Okay To clean balance. All right. It's on clean balance So we should leave it on rejuvenate and then switch it to that maybe wait 30 seconds Oh brother, and then we have to watch this thing get get brighter from higher voltage crap. This is making me nervous and uh So we wait we observe the heater for increased brightness from the higher voltage. We push and hold the Restore button. Which one's that? Let me see here. Hang on push and hold the restore button Did you actually rejuvenate one? Dale, let's see Oh, look, there's our show right now Let's uh Hang on. Oh my goodness. Let's see what I could do here Because I guess we probably should not just uh Let me read this one more time push and hold the restore button 18 19 20 for the gun out to be clean and balanced the store button has got to be this button So we would push the green button So we can do that we'll press this button For the gun to be clean and balanced the meter should rise immediately to a value near mid Scale after several seconds or more depending on the condition of the cathode The pointer will begin to fall it usually will fall smoothly to some low value Release the restore button when the pointer reaches 0.2 So that's all the way down in the red If the pointer drops erratically And then hangs up at a reading greater than 0.2 wait several seconds and then release the restore button Also watch this lamp to see if we got more shorts Okay Great. Yeah, it's been a while since I've even like looked at everything and then I was Trying to refresh my memory on stuff rather than just go back and spend like two hours before But I probably could have done that and made it Myself a little bit more knowledgeable all right So return the function switch immediately to set up Or to test And test it and it'll test So we want to go We want to go back to set up right 6.3 on the heater voltage Well, that's the wrong thing. I'm even twisting over here So now I got to set all this stuff up. Here we go. I think we're good where I'm like But what is Release it when it hits red Here we go So we got it set up now And then we go to test Right Or no, we go to set cut off. Sorry So that leave test Yes, that's what we thought we're going to go over here now to it said Select the function to restore position So we'll go to restore Then we'll push clean and balance down here And then we'll wait 30 seconds and I'm actually watching this thing and it is getting brighter I mean Right in there It's definitely getting brighter You could see it And So we don't want to do this too long. Like they said it probably is too long already We need to balance wait. Well 30 seconds observe the brightness push and hold the restore button and then um The gun to be balanced the meter should rise immediately to mid-scale So push and hold this here we go. It won't go up to the good Oh, there's just some sparking going on in there All right, I don't know that's probably Not that probably didn't do anything. Let's see. I mean nothing good Right, let's go back to set up now Back to set up. Okay 6.3 volts Why don't I keep turning the wrong one? 50 volts bar bar bar All right, now we go set Cut off that's where we got to set up stuff set the cut off All right, that should be set. Let's test and see if anything says anything Well, see look at that. Isn't that interesting? Man, so Like did that just technically work? Like Look at this You saw it Before now, it's like the best one Should I do that for the blue? And the red it's just like if I get a greening it greeny now So did that really just work? I don't have the monitor to plug this thing into Huh, wow. Thank you del and thank you any king. I can't believe it. Did that really? That was it. We cleaned and bounced it interesting quite interesting Yeah red Is 12. All right. All right All right, thank you. We'll set Everything up. I don't want to have it Again too high. I know he says going to punch voltage into it. All right. We'll do that. We'll set But we're not even testing it. We're going straight to restore All right, let's go down to restore again Let's go down to restore again. We might blow it up, but who cares? Like I said, it's Restore clean and balance And I'm saying it already heat up again I don't know if I can get this down so you guys can Man, I need to get like a camera that I could get even closer to this so you could see the sparking I don't know Wonder if I turn the lights out if you'll be able to see it. Hang on And it's warming up and we're going to hit this blue Let me turn the lights up And see if this does it hit the blue And hold it down There it goes It's not really moving. This one's not doing what the other one was doing Starting to jiggle go down. There it goes. You see it Holy moly. Did you see it? Did anybody see it? Now I got it short. I probably just shorted it Maybe Let's get over to the test mode setup Yeah, I think I might have just shorted it That's interesting. Okay Let's see Let's put it back in test mode. I'm gonna turn the lights back on. All right, we're setting it up Got that set got that set Set our cutoffs. We're gonna test all the colors again. Oh, look at that I don't know look at that It's definitely higher. That's the highest by far Now if there was a short would this be blink would any of these be blinking if this was a if there was a short Wouldn't it shouldn't these be blinking like or do they blink only when you took it take it to restore? Wow, I didn't think this would actually work like that. Thank you, Dale Yeah, thank you, Andy Thanks for dropping by Yeah, that's exciting. Okay Because I had been so worried that this thing wasn't doing anything right and I mean even this one we could probably hit this Leave red alone. He's saying leave red alone. Okay Leave red alone. We'll do it All right, we're gonna disconnect from this tube Maybe we'll run Let's just turn the whole thing off and let's go through a fresh setup and run one last task just to see Set up Again, we're good on the heater voltage Good on that voltage and it'll set cutoffs Okay, now let's see what test says All right, folks, there you see it our blue and our green are looking way better Than they were At the start of this video That's that's amazing. Okay, great. Okay. I'm I'm confident that did what that did what it was supposed to do Thank you. Thank you all Thank you to our wonderful helpers here today so we have Trying to think of I do have What I'll do is I'm gonna mark this down as having well good emissions on red green and blue and I'll note that it's got the Screen burn and I have to just save this for when this particular tube I will save now And I'll put it In case something comes in that has no color on one of the lines like at all We're gonna save this tube in case something comes in and has or terrible burn so We hopefully will find something with a bad tube or we'll just do it We did there and we'll rejuvenate. So that's the first one And actually I don't know if any of these are bad one of these Excited The next tube is the same Tube but it arrived Uh damaged or the monitor arrived damaged in shipping. So I never got to test it This is going so well that it might just become a show where I come in and do this With tubes. Uh, I don't know how many I could work through. I wasn't expecting this one to take that long But that's awesome. Thank you again everybody for helping Get this one off the shelf. Oh You feel this Like that is super hot The sparks are amazing Here we go next tube up Still got the bezel on it Not as old the parts of the bezel. I guess you could say This is The m34 kbe 20x tube. It's a 13 inch trinitron tube also with a blue label 600 tv lines and it is Uh from 1992 September of 92 and this one came from a unit that didn't have a lot of hours on it. It was super dirty though inside but it did not have a lot of hours and Right. Yeah, I know People always tell me that I still just never pay attention It might eventually happen Thankfully not yet But anyway, this is the same pin out for this tube This is the same pin out as this So we're going to just hook this up again right here And we'll run the same test and I don't think we're going to have to zap it I don't think so. So we'll start greens in the middle greens in the middle greens in the middle We're going to get red and blue also because They go on each side blue goes Can't remember off the top of my head Blue goes To the left and I'm looking at it. That's right. There's our red green and blue Then we're going to go again G1 and g2 So we're off of the I changed up the music today. We're off Jazz right now. Do you notice that? Thought maybe we'd get a little bit more techie 80s stuff and I don't know It's all right Can let me know what you think g2 I hooked up I hooked up g1 and h1. Yep This one's g2 It's always nice to check yourself before you wreck yourself literally in your tube G1 g2 You know, we might have to bring some fun stuff like this to a convention sometime. That would actually be fun H1 and h2 which they said didn't matter which you put it at but we're gonna just put it on the right spots Just for the heck of it. Why not? Those clips are super nice though. They work exceptionally well in this uh situation While we're removing shores Not removing shores cleaning and balancing cleaning clean and balance all right Let's get set up because we've got everything ready amazingly Plugged in plugged up make sure that nothing funny is going on no funny business switch over to desk view And once again, we will just run through and uh run the test mode here. Okay And while i'm doing that i'm gonna kick the light back on Give you a little bit more to see Salute your shores Uh, so many puns. Here we go. So we've got everything back to normal We're gonna go over here to set up on our initial power up and we are still good on this heater voltage Gotta let it sit for a second because it's like changes Same thing with this I'm looking me turning the wrong one again Okay Kind of like it right there get the cutoff set the cutoff Here we go. Let's see what this one says again. I believe this one has low hours But who knows we'll find out We're gonna flip over Hey, oh Kind of wobbly here Yes, see this one. I thought was low hour Look at that beautiful emissions reading Well, let me turn that light out. Just can't see it now But this is red green blue Off the charts. So that's good. That's what I was expecting to see from this one And So I wasn't completely sure Um Though because you never know when something gets damaged in shipping You can easily get A short so we don't have what looks to be any shorts That's the only thing I don't understand. It's going to tell me if there's a short in here Right, the lights up. It's bad if it lights up. It's good. I can't remember Oh Left to watch del's video No, don't need to rejuvenate this one. All right, let's uh Let's get something else Nice good timing on the the playlist I guess then All right, we've gone through now. This one's good Turn it off And that's kind of what I was expecting just to run through and test them Let's see about I told you there was another way to do this Oh, it's just those are going to be a pain Because they're 20 inches 20 inch tubes, okay 20 inch tubes But what I wanted to tell you was there's another way to do this if you don't have You just have the tube You don't actually have the neck board Go in here find the manual and that's what these tubes are from is 20 m2s Not m4s m2. This is our pinout right here Which is pretty much It's not the same. I don't think but well, maybe it is the same So we got green Red right of that blue left of that Then g1. Yeah h2 g2 So you got your h's and then you got your g's you can actually put down here and then you have three colors So you can use this use your game manuals Stuff No, I'm not doing that as an extra step refurbishing. I'm I don't mind testing them I'm not going to be refurbishing tubes unless they're bad like this one Because I believe the other one time I did it, but I of course used probably too much I believe I shorted out the tube And that was a bad tube to test on Oh big boy Big boy. Here we go. Just hope this didn't fall off the back End of my This is the big one Whoa, nelly I don't want this to just Make it sure it's not going to just slide off the desk and explode I'm going to get it on There there we go We have an m49 kg h11 x blue trinitron 600 line tube from a medical 20 inch Believe this is an olympus tube I remember it came from an olympus 203. All right Let's go back to our Screen here does that make sense? It's kind of got the green one right in the top in the middle again green Blue This is almost the same Might be the same. I can't remember if it's different. It's not that much different green blue red And then g1 We'll skip g1. We'll go h1 and h2 It's a good color blue and then we'll skip one then we'll go h2 That's pretty normal h2 h1 i'm not sure one of these actually has pretty poor color um One of these 20 inches both of them might but I know for sure one of them does G2 and g1 G1 And g2. Where are you at g2? There we go That should be right That should be hooked up right Hold on to your butts Here we go Maybe this will be able to see a little bit better down here since You know Then I'll want to fit into the screen. That's pretty much great right there. That's about as good as I Can get for everybody I think Maybe I can move out a little bit more Something like that. Yes, okay Do something like this Just don't want to make sure none of the lines are crossed bros Okay Now we're ready. We're gonna again run the test on this Go to set up once more We're gonna let everything set for a second I'm gonna set my This voltage down This one Feels pretty good Let's go to set the cutoff I'm afraid to even stand up and All right. I think we're good Don't cross the streams Here we go a little bit a little bit low on that A little bit low on that one. Okay. Everything else looks right. We got red green and blue. We're gonna run the test run the test Okay, this is probably the one This is probably the one that's good Because this would have good color or the boards or whatever This is I don't think this is the one I'm going to take it off because this one has good good good on the readings I don't see Any shorts readings on there So We have good red green and blue And I mean there's they're literally within They're within one division of each other one full division So this is not anything I'd rejuvenate not needed Let's go back. We'll turn this one off and We'll disconnect it now I could tell my kids my kids are home because it's summertime And they're getting pretty restless upstairs. I can hear them and the dogs running upstairs. So Probably gonna go check out what they're doing and Disconnect all this stuff And this was a lot of fun. I mean this was very informative and It was it was very helpful to have people come in and help out And so I really appreciate you coming in. I think this is a great stream I think it's going to have some replay value. I may even go and write an article about it Either that or I'll come through with a regular video on it eventually because This was a very good learning experience on how to actually use these And do it live with you all so Thank you Thank you. Get everybody if you're coming in late go back and watch from the beginning you can see everything we've done today And again, feel free to leave me a comment on the video of what you think. What's your experience? Have you ever used one of these? And have a great one. I'll see you in the next one
