 Well good morning everybody, it's 5 a.m. And I'm sneaking around my neighborhood and I found One of my neighbors has put a Sony Trinitron out Today to be picked up by the garbage man. It's a KV 27 And from 1990s, this is a pretty darn old one meaning it could be busted But what I think we should do is take this thing around to the shop since it's right across the street I'm gonna wipe it off turn it on and see what it looks like because if it doesn't have any problems It's actually a pretty decent television It's got a really cool built-in stereo system here with that sound wave Set up so I'm just gonna take this is literally across the street from my house Let's just go ahead now and we'll get this sucker back to the shop and see how it looks Well everybody, here's another look. I've got it cleaned up a little bit in my shop and I just wanted to show you The aesthetic design. I really like this It's almost like a profile look of its own To this television I've not plugged it in yet because as I said it was outside and it was kind of wet And it looks like we might have gotten a little scratch on the front which you can't really see That's a lot of shadow from the light behind it from the scratch but it's either a scratch or Something's got to be cleaned pretty heavily there, but I think it's a tiny scratch. Here's a quick look at the back Again this model comes from 1990 KV EXR 15 27 inch Here's a look at the input board I've got VHF UHF S video and Then two video ends for composite So it would be RGB modifiable most likely Well, here goes nothing Well, unfortunately, it appears to be dead. I mean nothing just a small click No screen up power You can see I got it powered on here, but it's like red green and blue lines up here Can't get it to do much else you can hear it kind of trying to process stuff But just no reaction to any buttons All right, so I have I have removed the speakers that I'm gonna be keeping right here But I'm gonna take this TV back with the neighbors now and drop it back off at the trash Oh Man that son of a gun's heavy, but it's back here. I'll just let the garbage take it. I think the water got into it It's just too old Well, fortunately that CRT has seen its better days and wound up getting picked up by the garbage man But I did give it another chance to at least maybe live on if it powered on but When it doesn't power on like that It's too much of a risk that I'll just be getting into something that is a big project to fix But it does show you that there are still tons of consumer CRTs All over the place at least where I live here in the southeast of the United States So if you are looking for a consumer set always check around garbage days If there's something on the street and also keep checking those ads on like Craigslist and Other things like Facebook and other Marketplaces because a lot of times they're still on there for free.
