 Well, good morning. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Wherever you are Joining me from today It is Monday October 2nd here where I live and It is time for another episode of the bunker so welcome in everybody good to see a lot of you already here in the chat See a couple people have showed up early. I appreciate that We got some people showing up now and that's awesome I expect maybe we'll have a few more people showing up today or maybe some people that have Took a couple episodes off. We'll be here live today. I'm anticipating with With this topic, right? This is I kind of posted it out there that this is like one of the almost Forbidden topics to talk about out there. So yeah, we're gonna be talking about safety CRT safety And I'm gonna give you the rundown on that here in a second But first, thank you all for joining me again live here on YouTube And this is the bunker and please if you don't mind I would really appreciate it If you could hit the like button for me right on your browser or whatever form of Medium you are watching this on if you are able to please do so it does help the channel and this show get more people coming in because Where I live this is like When I was in college, we would always laugh and watch like the Maury povich show The more povich show during this time block right this almost noon or like what's his name? Well, I can't I remember Jerry Springer. So it's like this Hard to get hard to get a lot of people on time zone here in the middle of the day in the United States But if you're out there, you can drop a like it definitely helps. I really appreciate it. Thank you so much Thank you everybody again for being here. So we've got race Aroni showed up today. Awesome. Thank you for coming temple of sesshat or seashat Or seshat. I'm sorry. I'm terrible with the name sometime Good morning. Good morning. I mean, I mean, you know, I'm in and Nemo Alexander Seb Pasadillo, Pasadillo Giants mega cards. Thank you all for showing up snow for stuffer. Welcome in welcome back. Thank you all so Again today. We're talking about CRT safety and we're gonna let things go for a minute. That's generally the procedure here and So if you're showing up and watching this after we are live Feel free to check out a pinned comment below. It will tell you a timestamp a timestamp in the bottom of Here where you can just jump ahead past like the warm-up period because it just does tenderly Excuse me. It generally takes 15 minutes for people to show up at least the majority of the crowd. Oh So welcome in Wonderful Monday wonderful Monday. We got more people coming in. Thank you all so much and yes when I will be open Here's the thing when we get into the safety discussion. It's gonna be like this. We're I figure it's been enough time that I Need to probably make an updated Safety video and it's not gonna be this stream is not a representation of that entire topic because There's a couple things I want to accomplish today first off I want to go back and Review the tape and now we've done that here before we want to review the tape and see The past episode that I have on safety which I'm looking at and it says goodness gracious It's for over four years old October 24th of 2018 so we're coming up on the five-year anniversary, which is this hilarious so we'll get to see mid 30s young Spry Steve in the old shop in Tennessee We get to see some footage. We'll see what mistakes I made and Where I got things wrong and because I'm sure I did I mean this was five years ago folks and Between now and then I've probably serviced a good five years. I bet I've serviced a good 800 to almost a thousand CRTs, right my CRT body count is Pretty enormous at this point morning Travis and clash and Robert's leppy Kevin Shane thank you and Hey, good call. I know I think it was you stuff or stuff hurt. Did you you caught that first off? Thank you anybody who watched the new video that came out last Friday I know a lot of people probably did because it got one of ten Over the weekend for me, so that's awesome. Thank you so much and I think it was you stuff for stuff Or who caught the creepy Creepy transition I put in there in that in that first transition Of that video, so you don't know what I'm talking about it happens happens early 30 seconds or so in so anyway Yeah, hang on guys I will be opening up the questions a little bit once we get into that topic So just hold tight because I don't want your topic. You may have a great question I don't want it to get buried in In our you know get going discussion. Okay, so Let's uh Let's get in here and as things are going. Oh, let's see what's been going on. So I had that video come out with the two Sony's the two eight inches kind of a comparison quick video I think it was really enjoyed by a lot of people. So maybe I'll go through and do a couple more I have another set that I can hopefully do another That style video, but of course look this We're still working on promoting the music city multicon Which if you want more information on it, I just I would consider Just googling music city multicon. It's in the Nashville, Tennessee area It's at the end of this month right before Halloween. It's that weekend Friday to Sunday, I will be there. I will have I've been thinking about what I'm gonna do more and more and more We went through this My presentation and one of the episodes here on the channel a live show and I was talking about things I wanted to change and so there's gonna be some things obviously I've been thinking on like that But I'm also bringing some CRTs. I have a lot of extra Consumer CRTs that are in great shape that I just have no use for I've got a few of them And I'm gonna be done with them and I'm going to take them to the show to sell them and it's gonna be reasonably priced I mean, it's not gonna be like ten dollars, but they're gonna be decent good-working CRTs So you're probably like at like 75 bucks for something I'm gonna open it up clean it out and I may even offer something whoa Cole. What's up? Sorry Cole is getting all feisty back here Come here What's up, buddy? He's just over there barking at something like what I've been moving since like I said, I moved some CRTs out to Make a little room for To make a little room for things I got all these extra CRTs So I'm gonna be taking some of them to that music city multicons I hopefully I'll float them to people who need some like 13 inches and I'm gonna have 120 inch That'll bring that'd be pretty nice that one will have like component and everything cuz I got an extra that I just don't need anymore so again if you're gonna be at The music city multicon. I will love to see you there. I'll have a booth there. I'll be working on CRTs I've got a plan you can come by and see me work on some crazy CRT stuff Live in a booth. I'm gonna put up like some caution tape so nobody gets too close But other than that I'll be there and I hope to see a lot of you there so Colg it's kind of upset when you move things out of place and It could be just something like a basket or a ball or something if it's in a place He doesn't think it should be in he'll get mad and bark at it and and just like think like it's an evil Evil something so I also have on the safety topic. I have equipment here. I want to talk to you guys some more about it, you know, of course We have this guy which is our lovely discharge tool and Other very minor tooling I have a CRT right here. That's popped open It doesn't have any power into it but it will make for a good demonstration on the desktop here where I should be able to pull this camera over and You know, we'll be able to look at some things there When we are when we're ready to do that and just take a look at kill old Cole He finally calmed down and got in his bed over there. So that's good sign He may be snoring everybody, but you know the you know the drill will let him snore I'm sorry if that happens. So we'll we'll just keep an ear out for him. There is a filter on the camera but again, thank you everybody for showing up and Been just a little bit of stalling Really? I did get to go to a college football game again over the weekend had incredible time my team won I met made a fool of myself probably and Had a good weekend. So that was all good and Now so let's just go. Let me see Let me see if there's anything else to really mention I will tell you a little bit of a story about the video that That we just that I just came out with again I will tell you a little bit behind the scenes this This those two CRTs had to be shipped Okay, we get a good size crowd here There's two or see there's two CRTs had to be shipped all the way across the country And I had to put them in the same box and I'm in Virginia and I had to ship them to Tacoma, Washington all the way from the East Coast to the West Coast and I Was talking with the client and we decided to go for the air. Hey Amos. Thanks for coming today. Good Mackey Shane thank you guys anyway, I Did the shipping procedure and of course I packed these two things wonderfully, but I packed them in the same box and It was a pretty good size box It's like the same size box you'd pack a good 13 inch and with instead I packed two those two smaller ones Packed them really well packed them in a box and then put them inside another box suspended in bubble wrap and then sent them air and again it was a good size box that weighed 40 pounds 39 and a half actually on the scale and man, oh my goodness it was 576 dollars just to air ship it today air from here to there with I put on it, I think 1400 dollars in coverage for insurance, but That's how much it costs that doesn't include the packing fees took two days to get there and If you go When you watch that video, I do show how there's a speaker inside of the KV 8 AD 12 I opened it up in that video and I even show you where the speaker is because I go in and show There's a potentiometer back there There's a connection point where that speaker just plugs into the circuit board well in that air even in the air travel it Some somehow the package bounced hard enough where that speaker Tension was on that wire because there's a lot of tension on it I mean it didn't have very much place to give so the bounce was enough to Dislodge it believe it or not from the board and there was no audio. So I had to guide Tony he was awesome. I had to guide him kind of through old reference videos as well as Well through DMs on opening the setup and looking in and thankfully yes enough It was just the speaker to become unplugged because he was testing the set everything was working good. It just didn't have The speaker plugged in so there was no audio. So thankfully he plugged it back in it worked fine He was able to get it back together and everything worked perfectly and when it came to the other set Which both these again I said went to the same spot It was the 8044 Q You know you get it in and those just are tricky When you use the buttons, so just take your time using the buttons on setting up That's crt freer its inputs because it's got a lot of different button combinations You can push and if you don't have the right ones it'll look like the screen's messed up And it just needs to have the right combination press so you have the correct input correct settings everything like that so Yeah, it's it was still fearful. I packaged it so well, but it doesn't really matter. You're always scared Oh, goodness. All right All right. Thank you Sashin. I see your comment. Excellent. Congratulations on fixing things. All right. Let's so That happened and that was fun over the weekend and that's just a follow-up to that video But hey, let's start talking about Let's start talking about safety right, okay, so This is the time When i'm going to go through some things and then there will be a section here in a minute where i'm going to open it up for questions and comments Because as I said, I want to make An updated video. It's been long enough uh to do A simple chat and make it about safety. So We're going to look back at the old footage, but um Not only that I wanted to open this up as a discussion so that We could talk about it together because there are going to be things that I'm going to forget To mention in that video because I'm a person who works by myself. It's going to be something extremely um Like basic and then I'll just get you know, I'll just get hated on For a simple mistake that I shouldn't have made So that way I can um Kind of work through that with you and we can talk about it and hopefully I won't forget anything okay, so let's uh Let's begin. Let's first off man, I'm going to just Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to just talk to you now. We're in our main topic. Okay, so this is it, right? This is going to be the time stamp moment my clock on the counter says 16 minutes and 49 seconds. So this is the point. We're jumping into our main subject safety and our full topic here We're going to start off by of course me plugging one more time because we have new people in here Please hit the like button if you can every time you hit the like button It results in eight to ten new views Of this show and that's really helpful And I always appreciate that everybody who does hit the like button You do it a lot on this show and I love it. I thank you and that's really It's really helpful right now as this is a new live show Anyway, let's start off by talking about a couple of tools. Okay And really the most infamous tool is going to be this This lovely device right here. It's a discharge tool And this is a homemade discharge tool I made a video on how I made this thing goodness gracious so long ago I can't even remember that either. That's the same time periods What I'm going to do is we're going to hopefully jump over here Maybe I can get a closer view of this thing for you And A good look at what what I've got here because this is nothing like what's it called? There's nothing there's not a lot of Not a lot going on to this tool right it's pretty simple You can go a little bit deeper and there's professional versions of this Which you can buy for a lot of money, right? Well, of course Bob Why do you think it's got so much oil on it Probably broken into a few I've probably had to hot wire my Mercury grandma key a few times with this tool, okay So this is one of uh one of our safety weapons probably our most important safety weapon And you need to be you need to be comfortable with this thing You need to be confident with this thing and it does look terrible, right? But there's there's really a reason for all this There's really oh, yeah allegedly you're right You're right folks. This is not it's nothing about um Not being actually. Thank you, Bob for showing up. I can finally remember to put you on as a moderator here from my phone and uh Whoo, I don't want to hear myself Excellent there you go so let's Let me do one thing really quickly here and There we go All right, there we go All right, folks. So as I'm saying here We've got our discharge tool, okay It's pretty simple. It's a Standard what what is this we'll even look at you can look at this a husky version. It's an old old Um Flathead screwdriver pretty thick thick headed right see there. Let's see. I don't know how good that Back up a little bit Like right there Okay Pretty thick headed right I mean You want me to pull out the calipers and show you I like to use a thick one Okay Right that sounds good. I used I like to the ones with them them thick thick shafts This is This is just so childish. I feel like sometimes So this is I would turn that on but it's busted. It's not been working right you know Was that about 10 whoops 10 millimeters 10 millimeters wide And uh Oh heavy duty goodness gracious there we go live show folks Yeah, the thickest point there And again pretty thick they could thicken end here And just Just like that. Now. I don't what I don't want on here is a very sharp edge. Okay. I want this to be dull and blunt And I don't because I don't want to go in there and and we're gonna I'm going to show you that here in a second But like for example if I'm over here and I'm using this I don't want this to be there. This is a bad one because it's actually got I'll show you. It's got this stupid Cap with Much people get upset. I'll shock myself on the safety episode. Anyway, it's got a cap here that I'm That I'm gonna have to try to remove here live for you. We'll do that. I'll show you this um You know and this is actually not even recommended for sony. Sonny doesn't want you to discharge it the way we're gonna do it But anyway, you don't want something too sharp of an edge So when you when you get under that cap and you're actually discharging it You don't want to be like scratching into the glass right there or You don't want to accidentally slash this rubber anode cap and make a hole in it where you would expose that voltage It's up retro tech or die. So there's no um Again, we'll get this off in a second, but there's no reason to use something super sharp And also it doesn't need to be like super long. I mean it can be longer than this if you want But it doesn't need to be like example this long Okay, okay Usually you could use it like this long, but then you need to be concerned with shielding all this Because you're going to take this and make this a big live Uh voltage probe for the most part. So you're going to have voltage going along the metal here So I don't like to make it hugely large when I'm using it I also want to use something that has obviously no conduct no conductivity chance There's no voltage going to pass through this handle at all. There's absolutely zero chance of that, right? It's in a it's in an acrylic plastic molded handle that has no chance of transmitting Or transferring any type of electricity. Okay, so that's the first thing too that we need is we need to have the dull tip Needs to be pretty heavy duty and thick And then uh, or these are just the tips. I would tell you the tips on this tool and then that nice A nice handle like this you could use wooden handle ones Just as long as it doesn't like see how that insert in there Is the metal from The edge here The only thing I will warn you about is if you have another one where that metal comes out in any way If there's a ring on here that has the metal and it's it's you know, it's part of your screwdriver That's bad Or if that sometimes I'll have screwdrivers where that metal will go all the way back to the back here And then there's an exposed piece of metal back here and that would be just as bad You know, you're gonna be really being risk risky there. So The structure is that you start with a cheap decent screwdriver And then What I have here is just an old piece of scrap wire from a busted Extension cable and the reason I use that Is because it's it's well shielded first off. It's high high gauge wire We'll clip a piece off here and then look at it a little bit closer So if we you know see here, you know, you're looking at I don't know. Maybe 10 to 12 gauge wire here. I don't know maybe Well, maybe not quite that maybe Maybe in that 12 to 14 category is better But it's well shielded. It's a piece of scrap wire nice copper in there And since it was an extension cable, it had three things, you know a positive a neutral and a ground And these don't do anything But it also has an extra layer of shielding out here That's why I like it because I have this extra layer of shielding And if we look in here that has an exposed Uh or that wire goes up to that point and then it wraps around it's not soldered on there It's just stripped down about two inches and then it's wrapped around this and um Then that cable goes down here and then that cable comes out there where it's got tons of electrical tape And then again, this is just scrap wire that's left over and that goes down here to the other end Which this is not hugely long again. You don't need something that's like four foot long I think this one is about Three feet, which is about as much as you need, you know and on the other end. I actually did solder in a Crip I clipped it in I soldered it in It's a nice little alligator roach clip whatever you want to call that thing And that makes for a great clip to clip on to something like that and then There you go. So I'm going to show you a quick test for your tool Let's say you got it together And you're like, yeah, I feel pretty good about this thing, right? This tool's pretty pretty good. I feel pretty pretty You know as Larry David would say pretty good Pretty pretty good This is braided wire I don't I don't use solid core because I the solid core would be too stiff Too stiff. All right Solid core would be very hard to bend like you want it to be able to roll up like this See how I can roll that up and maintain a good high quality cable Well, let's say you got it all built together and you want to be safe, right? It's a safety. So we want to make sure we We have this thing tested And we're not gonna we're not gonna expose ourselves to any danger So all you need it doesn't have to be this big fancy thing. Okay It doesn't have to be a big fancy meter like this one I'm not trying to hold my fluke flex, right? I'm not fluke flexing on you. Sorry. I just love this meter. Okay Give me a brick Just kidding. I'm joking All right, I'm in continuity mode and I'm gonna stop confusing you and me and I'm gonna flip this camera around Okay Give me one second. I think one more is the good one excellent There we go. There we go folks ladies and gentlemen we have We'll fix it up a little bit better here. So All right, I've got just you know, this is in continuity mode It's ohms mode right ohms. Yeah, okay so all we're doing is we want to make sure that Basically what's going to happen here is that our voltage when it goes from one point it's going to go to there, right? Right, so that's good. That's a nice consistent Spot where that's all we're going to do is if there is any voltage in that anode cap It's going to hit that and we wanted it's going to quickly go to this edge And it's going to just discharge out into the Wonderful atmosphere. Okay. I'm just kidding. It's going to discard. It's going to discharge through the ground on the tv But we can also do something like this like I can maintain this clip here Which we know is again live to this end So that's a demonstration if we had for example if we have a deferred example this uh right here Like this it would be live right voltage if it was if it was actually voltage coming in We want to check and see See so like I'm testing the edge here where My tape is I want to make sure I don't hear anything Like even over here See I want to make sure that Oh see There's a possibility For me to you know catch that voltage coming out of any of this It's got to be just you know, this is again A way to make sure that there's no voltage coming anywhere. If you had a piece of metal here You probably do it where you would have that Okay See so this way, you know, you're safe. You're like, okay. Well voltage it comes in here It's going to hit that if it happens if it happens It'll go there it'll go to that point and and I'm completely safe touching this end Okay It's always great to stay below this point right here no matter what but Even like this exposed in it's not like that's got any connection Point to this right? Okay. See none of that voltage is like coming to that or anything usually I have that clipped off I just had that I have that clipped off pinched off because it's not even being used Well, I have good I've all right, so you guys do know That I have seen one time a really bad CRT discharge that I could show on on the On the stream really well arcade monitors do it a lot. Hey, Tony. I was talking about you earlier. Thank you for showing up and So I'm sorry. I lost track of what I was saying there. But anyway, we're not we're not worried about this Point here. It's again just this black cable That's going to this clip and I have that pushed up over there and you just maintain a good safe distance You wouldn't go anybody near this with that plug and going in right there the toshiba. Yes. I'm sorry That's what I was mentioning. Thank you for the reminder sashin the toshiba video I did a couple months back on the channel It had a great example of uh, no, it's okay It's it had a great example of a discharge where I would every time I would discharge the thing It would make a huge scary zap and you could almost the interesting thing was Let me show you kind of now. This will probably get a little bit dizzy, right? Let's see We're probably I'm probably gonna have to Without making you guys too sick here. Let me go back to this. I'm gonna fix that camera Um, if I can here Whoops, sorry about that. So Let's uh Get back here Go back here And we will configure the video again and I'll invert myself back to normal okay now when you have a The rt like this stony's pretty much always have a built-in bleeder resistor And most high-end stuff will but you can never really take that for granted, especially Like guys, this is a gals. This is like high level You know, I obviously I'm at a point where I have done this so many times. I'm comfortable. I know which ones to Work around like this, but most of you are not going to have that level of an experience So I don't want you to go in here and take anything for granted. Hey Robert. Thank you very much for the super chat Says I love your channel. Keep up the good work. Thank you so much. I appreciate that so Again You can go see that video that toshiba video and it will show you one of the worst zaps you'll ever see On the on the crt. Just a zap every single time On the end of this where if you were touching that it would go into your body. It would definitely make your day unpleasant Definitely make your day unpleasant. So this I'm going to be honest with you this thing right here I don't know how bad that let's get that just the light off there. We'll leave that up there. This right here is Pretty much the biggest tool like that you have to worry about when you're working on the crt. Just to be safe. You need um You need to Have that consideration for safety. Uh, and you need to use this To make sure things are safe. So let's talk about Uh, maybe Well, how about this Let's jump over now. Let's roll some footage. We talked a little bit more in depth about this tool We're gonna see what I have to say. We're gonna see what a much younger much more spry steve has to say about all of this and I have two videos. I don't think we're gonna I don't think I can handle watching both of them of myself to be honest Oh, but pardon me folks. So let's go back Let's go back in time Back to a time When I was much younger much more spry much Much much much different. We had a different dog in the house Yes, I don't know if brutus is in this video but We're gonna roll through this bean footage here and we're gonna see We're gonna see what uh What this younger steve from retro tech has to say Again, this is five years ago. I'm gonna pause our jazz obviously. I'm gonna turn I'm gonna turn my mic down a little bit. I'm gonna turn Desktop steve up and let's watch this awkward entrance Oh my goodness, I think this is this is gonna be great. Let's let's do a reaction. All right. Hang on. Hang on. I know I'm not Let's try now I'm steve and today we're looking at crt's again Today we're going to be talking about crt safety specifically on a crt that is a consumer grade television So lastly, I want to see if this is a good television to possibly rgb mod It only has rf and composite inputs right now So it would be a great candidate if it's possible to add rgb to this So then it's not so uh useless pretty much in today's world Okay, so let's take a closer look behind the crt before we open it up This is just a brief look at the behind the right this poor this poor awkward steve ma'am, this is hard This steve this steve was lacking a lot of camera camera charisma a little myth Oh Goodness, let's see what's that. Let's see what is that specific one txd 1972 manufactured in january of 1997 And samsung and like I say the inputs down here on the back Are very standard. Um, actually it's only got a one of the composite video Uh connectors looks like it's been ripped out of it And then we just have the rf and then there's composite and mono audio in the front So let's go ahead and remove the shell now and take a look in the back All right, so before we go too much further Let's just talk about something that we need to make sure we've done first off Make sure you've unplugged the television And uh, this thing was turned on yesterday. So it's been full 24 hours since it's been turned on I I just recommend waiting about a day All right This is hilarious, right? Okay, let's already debunk this whole this whole youngster Oh Goodness, let's just debunk this youngster for a second First off It doesn't really matter Most of the time to wait If you do this right even if there's this even if there is energy in there you do it correctly You discharge it correctly You can do it 20 seconds after you unplug the machine Okay Now I would recommend waiting a couple minutes just because you do hear a lot of that voltage Kind of sporadically separate out the tube when you turn something off And of course you want to let all those circuits if they do have a discharge circuit to go She don't need to wait a full A full day I know I hey guys. I loved I'm having fun. I'm not like I thought this was going to be fun. I haven't watched this video Probably since I've made it So Hey Belmont, thanks for showing up today. Um, hey, brian armin ronnie cousin Hubert, thank you all for showing up today ronnie. I think I got you. Yeah, chris Oh, I know right felipe All right, let's continue Let's continue to move on down the road and and i'm also going to give you an update to this television We actually did a stream. I did a stream with bob. What last week on this tv. This is the red one For the first time is the red one that was rgb modern, you know, if you've never opened it before It's always good to just unplug it let it sit for a full day Okay, I've removed the back of the tv now. This is again the very first time I've opened this television And you can see right away. This is just filthy. It's covered in all kinds of dust And just sediment from probably 20 years Hey, stand hey brian arnold opened I hope you can see on the camera, but there's just inches of dust and build up on here So this is a really good example of what I wanted to show on the back of a crt And the reason behind opening this even if you're not doing anything else It's good to come in here and inspect. I mean, there's so much dust on this board down here That if you were to use this for a long time, you would probably heat up these components this dust would Probably cause something to either fail. It could burn up and stink a lot. So This is a perfect example of why you'd want to get in here in the first place to clean out the crt But before we do that, we want to make sure we go through the safety precautions And we do the right things to make sure we're safe Okay, so as you can see, like I said, just tons of filthy dirt and dust. I really want to clean that off and So before I go ahead and do that, I want to make sure this is just completely safe And to do that, I need to discharge the crt Now some people, you know say you don't really need to do this But let's just go ahead and do it to be safe on this. Let's just assume this is the very first time We've ever gotten inside a crt. So let's go ahead and discharge this and Before we do that, though, let's talk about a little bit of personal protective equipment There is some personal protective equipment. All right, so here's the thing I remember this again here. We're going to get a little personal here. Okay First off, thank you everybody for showing up. Look if you're here I'm sure there's people here that are new for the first time. Welcome in. Thank you very much for showing up I really appreciate it. This is the bunker. It's a live show. It's every monday. It's at this time slot And it's about every thursday. Sometimes I have to take a thursday off And when that happens, I have a replacement show that that fills this spot that I shoot with a friend of mine named zez called The cathode ray podcast so uh, but anyway, welcome in. Thank you so much for coming Please if you don't mind if you just got in do me a favor and hit that like button that does help the show grow And I'm sorry if you've heard me say that already a few times and you've already done it I appreciate it, but I do have to mention that every once in a while and again, we're talking about safety today We're looking at this old video And yeah, these are the gloves, right the infamous gloves. Okay I'm about to show you the gloves on this video But the reason it was really weird, you know, this is a time when I didn't uh, I didn't know a lot about CRT's not nearly as much as I do know now, right? I didn't know I wish I know I wish I knew them what I do know now exact opposite of toby keith song Uh, I wish I knew them what I did know now. Okay and that's that these aren't really necessary and Well, I was really just more concerned with how bad people would uh judge me I think if I came out and said you could just do this without gloves Now these gloves are okay. They'll give you a little bit of confidence, but they're awkward. Look at them. You cannot precisely touch anything they're like some kind of Just messy glove Just some kind of glove that you can't awkwardly precisely touch anything, right? What am I supposed to do with precision with these big sausage glove fingers? Okay And these are gloves are expensive, right get them from granger. Let's see Let's see what this says uh I'm gonna look at this in a second, but these are marigold industrial grade 10 score But they only do max volts 500 ac voltage protection, so you're pretty You're pretty much fine for doing like this like your hair. Oh my hair like if this is on and you're like, oh My hand just fell Against it, right and I'm not trying to dig like That's really what your protection is This is has such high voltage if it was running it really wouldn't This isn't gonna be enough protection If it were to hit this high voltage running. Oh, sorry just losing it there for a second with this freaking prop glove Anyway, uh the glove is awkward, right? Because if you're in here, you're like, oh, I need to do this need to do this Need to do this. This is all lower voltage stuff but There are areas of high voltage in here, right Anyway, I wanted to go off a little bit about that because Again, we've or the good thing what what's the good thing steve's young steve here said so far, right? We need to be unplugged. We need to have the discharge tool And that's the best thing so that he said so far. He said some stupid stuff, but we do need to We do need to be unplugged Do you need to be unplugged but if we're unplugged, right? There's not live voltage going in there So it's just stored for voltage in that tube Now this is important The larger the tube The larger the voltage So if you are working on a large tube steve's advice about waiting the day isn't actually that bad But you don't have to do it because there's plenty of large arcade tubes that are like 30 inches, right? And you can Hey, I need to pull that board. It's just not working. I just tested it You could pop it off and it will probably zap Okay You could use this but you don't have to Okay, so we're going to look at what she says more about these gloves and kind of giggle Kind of giggle at ourselves So we'll see what youngster steve here has to say continue on That's your lesson on personal protective equipment Young steve what means you can use while working with electronics. First example would be gloves And these are some highly rated industrial strength electrical gloves and rubber insulated gloves I'll show them off here. These did come from granger and they were about 70 dollars, but they're available Through any they're available through any store that may sell safety equipment online So amazon ebay all places like that will have something like this But these are specially made and they're not hugely thick But they do feel weird. They're a specific type of rubber and they are rated up to a certain voltage And so this is a good set right here. Again, these are about 70 us dollars for these gloves after all the discounts I got for ordering them So what you can do is actually wear these gloves And then it's recommended to even go further than that and these were just about a 20 pair of nice leather gloves And I you can actually put these on the outside of the red rubber gloves And then you have double protection for your hands And when you're sticking it inside a crt, if if you just need the extra, um, you know If if this helps you get over any kind of fear and makes you feel so more secure then Please don't uh, you know, please go for it. It's not it's not that bad if you're Ha Oh my goodness. Yeah, young steve young steve. This is so Comfortable hilarious. I have them still here. Look at them. They're nice and dirty Look at this. This is Double bag it, baby This is like this is like better than like 90s trojan ads right double. You got to double it up guys You going to spring break this year you got it. You go into club la vila Oh, you must be preckin you must be pecking Double stack it. All right. It's like I said, man my crt body count now has got to be over a thousand Oh, man people gonna like oh if you don't like goofy stupid, I don't know jokes like this you're in the wrong place I guess right so Oh Look at this you keep going young man over your fears. Um, then I say, you know, it's always better to be safe than sorry Another thing to think about is the kind of clothing you're wearing while you're working on this stuff if you want to be, um Protected Additionally, it's good to wear some, you know tight sleeves now I'm not saying this cotton material is perfect. It would be nice to have something That was maybe a little thicker in canvas so something that's tight on your arm under that glove And at least something that will uh protect your skin from direct contact on something that can help out too Always too when you have your hand inside a tv if or any other electronics that has power going into it Only work with one arm or hand at a time Keep the other hand in your pocket. It's called the one hand pocket rule So just use your work hand and keep your other hand in your pocket While you're doing the work and that way you're never going to ground something through your chest area Uh, which can really cause damage to your heart All right. Good. Good job there young man. You got through it. Oh goodness. Yeah, sorry guys I did get a little bit funny there for a second Well, ma, thank you Oh goodness, yeah, let's hope I don't embarrass myself too bad Oh Goodness, this is so fun. Anyway Uh, the one handed rule is a great piece of advice when you're working on discharging a crt. It always is good to have One hand free from the frame So if you're sitting here like let's let's say Let's say steve retros in here and he's like, oh, hey. Hey. Hey. I'm about to discharge this. Where should I hook this up? um Let's Pull it to the chassis here Right And then let's go in here. Hey, let's discharge it. All right. I'm ready. I've been uh I've been training. I've been watching myself. I'm ready to discharge it and I come in here and I discharge it, right? And I'm like, ah Let's make sure let's see if I'm right. Maybe I'm crazy Maybe I'm crazy, but would would we have shocked ourselves by doing it like that? All right. Oh my goodness. Look at that We could have been so careless We could have just like zapped ourselves by holding it like that, right? So you want to have that one hand out of the way so you don't actually do that And it's actually really great So talking about the shocker Haven't thought about that since Since bad days in college. All right, so So One hand the pocket that's really a great piece of advice, right? We want to have one in the pocket Some of these things are definitely going to stay in the next video for safety And that's one of them What else? Well, the reason too is if I did what I just did on this example And think about How That path of voltage would go It would go Well It would go through there would hit here go through here And it might try to jump through this but it wouldn't jump through that But it's going to just go throughout your body and everything and You don't want to take that like to your heart now Another thing is if you hit two points and you do like this and you close a circuit, that's even worse Right, that's when it passes through your heart and hits the ground something like this and you're like bam And it's like Don't want to do that at all That's a really bad thing. So anyway, that's a fun little demonstration on how you could accidentally zap yourself Just by Your form on uh Discharge also think about that if this is a live set with metal chassis This has a metal chassis frame and it's on a ground loop And if you have a metal base table Well, you could ground through the table then you have even more um, if I wanted to get extra frisky and protected I could for example take my Uh ground wrist strap here that this like my ground wrist strap actually goes all the way to like the house's ground cable Like a big rod. So it just literally goes into the earth from this directly so I could you know I don't know I could if I really wanted to I could connect. I don't even see one really handy. I usually have these things within arms reach But I could pretty much run a jumper cable from this point to this point And that way It would go off into the ground. Okay. Hey grail. Thank you for showing up so that way I could just get that on out of here or you could leave it on the frame But you want to make sure you don't have the frame attached to something else that's metal, you know, you could then transmit it Hey, that's the hey, this is a number. This is thank you for bringing this up belmont You don't have you can have fun. You can just watch this show laugh at me. We can laugh at old steve You don't have to do any of this stuff. I'm not telling you to do any of this stuff I'm just trying to show you a little bit of what I do when I do this stuff because if you do not have confidence or skills or Much technique You shouldn't really try this if you don't want, I mean, there's always going to be a risk when you're messing with electrical stuff Thankfully, you could take a lot of the risk out by unplugging it But even that case there's so much risk because there's electricity stored in some tubes Beyond some of us stays charged for a long time that to she would stay charged for a long time. Okay So if you're not comfortable at all, that's perfectly fine and don't You know know your limitations Take time There's no there's no like there's no race here. There's no race to a finish line most of the time Take your time If you want to learn about this stuff Don't have to do it right away And this is like it's just first Hand a little bit sneak peek. I would love this to happen someday to have you know a Like a master class offering where Someone could come in live or a classroom live where you would have to basically pay For like a three day course, right? Where we hang out you bring a crt with you that you want to work on You bring a certain set of tools And we're going to get you to a certain point from day one to day three And it's like a whole workshop might even be like a week long thing I don't know. I mean it would have to be I'll be honest with you It would have to be something that would be in price line with other kind of camps like that that are specialty I don't know what that exactly would cost, you know, but you would have to think about it being something that would be Along those lines and again, this is just This is just brain farts coming out here on the live stream with everybody. Anyway, sorry for that jump off here um, but I appreciate everybody Coming in and and like kind of guiding this conversation as we go because there are some key things coming in there But let's get back to some humor And see what see what we have to say from young man steve now We'll give you a background at this point. I believe I was still using some kind of editor on my phone, maybe or maybe I'm trying to figure out if I was filming with my old cell phone at this point or if I had moved on to my original Film camera that wasn't a cell phone. That was a Nikon camera Grail I would have the Texas is a place if it wasn't so hot It would be a great place for me to go. There's a lot of business there and I have a lot of good connections with With people in the Houston area Uh, so that would have there's always that if I really gosh man. Anyway, let's uh Let's move on Back here behind the crt Look at this spring right here This is part of our ground loop on the crt And this right here is our degauss coil cable But this one is directly attached to the ground loop on the entire crt television So that's where i'm going to connect my end of my discharge cable is probably right in that loop connection area Or over here on the cable That way I have a good spot just easy to connect to the ground of the whole tv Now i've gotten my discharge tool and it's connected over here to the ground spot. I told you about If for today's demonstration, I am going to wear the gloves So what you're going to try to do now is just take the end of your discharge tool Which will then send electricity from anything that's built up in that tube Over to the ground and you should uh, you know, just maybe sometimes you hear a pop Maybe we'll be lucky and we'll hear a pop when we do this, but not always So I don't even mind flipping that up so you can actually see The anode But i'm i'm physically touching it A couple times Now that i've touched it. I can let it sit for five minutes and i'll come back and repeat the process Okay, so it's been about 15 minutes. I've come back here and i'm going to go ahead And do this All right, so just like I said earlier this whole double discharge It's not really necessary What you could do instead So you could skip this double discharge. You could pop it out And then there is a chance that the tube itself This happens sometimes especially with larger tubes. Okay, i'm not going to act like it doesn't because it does sometimes this tube You'll discharge it once And then you let it sit for a couple minutes and a secondary amount of electricity that didn't fully discharge will build back up In that tube And then you'll still have another little bit of charge left in here It's not even as much as the original charge and none of this is enough to really You know blow you off the your rocking chair. Okay it's like Again, it's not running when you're doing all this and this is a second discharge, but Uh the tube can build this up so you can always remove this Anode cap like i'm going to do on this tv in a second And then you can let it sit and then come back and discharge the tube again Or you could sit there just keep discharging the tube for a couple minutes You could sit there and tap tap tap tap tap as many times as you want Come back tap it again tap that Tap that maybe All right, let's see him let's see him do it the same process of just slipping this under There and discharging that to make sure There's no current running in it. I don't hear anything So it's good to go Okay, so now that i've safely discharged this crt. I'm going to go ahead and remove my crt round cable and then we're going to go and Use some brushes and get a lot of this dust off here I've seen other videos where people have used uh cleaners and sprayed it I'm not going to let I don't have enough time to let this sit. It's really cold in my area. So I'm afraid that any water may Freeze or something if I let it get into any kind of electric electrical component. So we're just going to use compressed air and brushes to get a lot of this dirt out I know also people get concerned about capacitors and maybe getting shocked the only other Area that's of concern right now would be where the larger capacitors are down here but they're on the bottom of the board and But guys, I know a lot of people like talk about this stuff like capacitors being super dangerous But most of I've never had Lock on wood. I guess right. I've never had an actual personally again. I'm not This part of this discussion is just me. I'm telling you the truth. I've been doing it again high count of crts. I've worked on There is maybe a couple times Twice where I've actually seen a A capacitor on like a board similar to this board actually zap When it's turned off and you're just working on something and it shorts out together Which would cause a zap but again, I want you to think about it. It's not a zap. It's going through your body This is going to be a zap on a small capacitor point And if we look at that, let me get an used capacitor. It's going to go it's going to go short short distance between your finger So most of the time what's going to happen is it's going to burn your finger. Okay Could burn it Could burn it up like zap it but it's not going to actually It's not going to actually like it's not like a capacitor that's in something very dangerous such as The higher end Big capacitors you're most of these small capacitors are really no No problem And when you're discharging like this, it's not really an issue. You don't need to worry about it You could go in afterwards when you pull this board out and Take a little screwdriver and discharge every capacitor, but I don't think that's going to be so That's a topic I want to talk about what about what about that? What do you guys think should we leave that even in as a discussion the capacitor part and this out because you can't You can't get shocked by the top of the capacitors So those aren't going to be really any hazard. There's no large capacitors at all on this board I don't even see maybe one capacitor on this entire board back here for the neck board on this tv So there's no real danger there. Just be mindful still of the anode cap area As occasionally energy can still be built up in your crt tube and if you were to Take that out and There might be chance that you could get some electricity come off of there But that's very rare and you're fine if you leave the anode cap left in So, um, there are special brushes you can use but Honestly, I found that a good high quality paintbrush that doesn't have paint on it, of course, but One that has nice bristles that are tough that are not going to damage anything either kind of soft also Does a really great job of just brushing a lot of that dust off the top And that's what I really like to use because it gets in between things safely and it doesn't leave anything behind So that's just a little tip. Uh, now you can use a Yeah, let's talk about some things too like people a lot of people will grill me online because again But i'm trying to tell you this this is not this today's video is a discussion about safety And uh, we're going back looking at this old video kind of critiquing it And again, we're talking openly about things This is in no way like meant to be your complete guide to safety This you shouldn't we're openly discussing things where I have a ton of knowledge and things and Mostly it's learning. Um on the fly and I don't want Right, you can't really take too many precautions when it comes to safety. So Again when I made this video, that's why I had a lot of I had the double Uh gloves on I said a lot of the things about leaving it longer There are going to be times With other crt's where it will zap every time people are bringing up CRTs in the arcade systems. And yeah, those can be violently zappy. Okay Okay So that's not uh, there's going to be times like that where you need to know kind of what you're working on So we're just openly discussing this so that We can get We can get things right in a better video Yeah, and any look Hey, absolutely anything can happen, right? even Let's say something even on this too because I've seen them like zapped twice, but it happens Uh You could come in here and The integrity on these parts could be worn out. You don't know it Zap you right Okay the most important thing is to Be comfortable and know what you're doing and and be aware of the risks that there is risk There's always risk in this stuff This I think and I think that again I like talking about these things kind of like this but again, this is not meant Like oh, you have to do it this way. This is the only way Right, there's different ways to do things. I'm just giving you through some knowledge firsthand of what I experience what I do and And again, this is not plugged in This particular one has it been turned on in probably five years. It's been parted out. It's been opened up It's just a demo model the darn Ano cap is completely epoxied in completely epoxied in and again, this has a discharge bleeder all these This is one of the more Really really low end pvms. It has like a third of the parts are just missing so The discussion is here. I think the important information Is to try and make sure you're just most comfortable with whatever you're working on and again either way I think it's an open-ended interesting discussion Okay, and the last thing look The last thing I want to happen to anyone. I don't care The situation I would hate to have anybody hurt themselves Working on a crt and saying I did something that would cause that now. I realized this is the internet and this is just a show and like the live show and if Whatever you do is up to you. You take watch these videos and And this is uh, and then you move on from there You can either use it as an entertainment. You can use it however you see fit, but again, it's not there's no rules There's no rule book here. It's like I'm or there's not officially any rule book This is 8040 It just has s video composite only one input line No, like half the stuff on this board is just missing. Okay. Well, let's go back I think steve's finally going to get in here and discharge this tube. This has been Sorry about that. This has been something like electrical brush So you don't short anything out when you get around the boards and things But most of the time this will do fine on a crt Oh man. So take a quick look back here at this board with me. This is why You have to get in here and just inspect your crt after you get it It makes you clean it. Just look at this enormous amount of dust built up on these capacitors And these are the important Capacitors that will affect your geometry And everything, you know if and all this excess build up will just act as a As a heat Insulator, sorry a heat insulator and it will wear these parts out because heat will build up quicker in them And they're already Over 20 years old So it's a really great idea to get in here and get as much of this stuff off as possible Even the fly back over here. Let's let's pan around and look at that too Yeah, okay. Just disgusting all kinds of dirt and dust. So what I'm I don't know I'm going to try to do some more cleaning on this thing But um, if you notice this fly back is just filthy. So let's get it cleaned up And uh, see all this soot around these adjustments This does have focus adjustment and a brightness adjustment on the bottom And um, so that's important to know Well, and even inside the shell is just absolutely filthy if you're looking up here on the front. So this thing has Years and years of soot and nastiness built up on the inside It raises it could use a full disassembly and extreme cleaning So maybe we'll do that in a future video. But for now, let's just get it cleaned up enough to continue talking about safety on it Okay, so one more thing to look at here is this cable that's going from the fly back And it's part of the anode cap And just look at how much dust is on that It's be simple easy Wipe down and actually it's just so black. It's not coming off So this one's got some extra soot in it. It's not so that's not actually that bad It looked really nasty, but it's not actually on there. The dust is It's pretty well off that cable So let's go ahead and start looking at some of these areas on here Again, this anode cap is a very dangerous spot on the crt. Just be mindful of that Okay, and anything attached to that. So you've got your anode cup You've got your cable And then you've got that going down to the fly back So let's just start with this cable It's good to inspect this cable. Make sure there's nothing wrong with it. No splits nothing while it's discharged Make sure the connection is still good down here at the fly back and everything Uh, because this cable, you know, it's doing it's going to be sending all the electricity into the back of the tube Uh, the second area to watch out for on the back of all this is on the yoke assembly, which is this area right here Uh, it's this white ring all the way up to this Okay, so we're talking about the yoke assembly again. That's this area between this white portion and this little screw right here And this is what you can adjust You can undo this screw a little bit and then you can adjust this left or right if you have a yoke problem Where you may have a screen that's tilted or something. That's what the problem is is this yoke is tilted somehow And you can just loosen that up and tilt it Uh, unfortunately a lot of times you have to do that while the crt is running So I do need to be mindful of these points right here this and this I'm actually glad I remembered to point this out. I thought I didn't uh these points right here now when you get inside and Like this is this is pretty much after servicing put cleaning it putting it back together, right? And you're gonna start to or you want to make an adjustment. So you have to use the with the voltage on This is not something you should you know, this is high level Stuff because you can zap yourself on this this yoke You see these points. I'm I'm pointing at There's no There's a couple of them that have heat see or heat shrink tubing on them. Maybe just that one There's a voltage that comes through there. So if you were to put your hand and Touch those points you could ground out and definitely get get yourself a zap off that yoke from this box And there's like usually one on top one on bottom I'm glad I remembered to point that out point and these three points right here on the back of this plastic On crt's like this standard televisions. These are usually exposed And it can be shock points. So do not tap into these points right here. Be just mindful of that Because there is current going there and if you ground it out there you could shock something. So don't do that So down here look at this area. These are our convergence rings Which on a standard television most of the time to adjust convergence you have to move these rings around Hopefully that's not a problem on your tv Because that's one of the hardest things to adjust I won't be doing that in this video and I don't recommend that unless you're highly skilled And have a lot of equipment so you can get it right Okay, so when you're working back here, sometimes you might have to come back to this flyback And this is where the electricity is generated going to the tube and it's it's coming from this Flyback right here. So occasionally now this one's still dirty Occasionally you have to come in here and spin these potentiometers and You see they're they're Threaded so you can use a screwdriver in there. So if you use a screwdriver with a plastic handle, you'll be fine You can turn those clockwise and counterclockwise And it'll actually increase your screen brightness with this bottom one and this top one will increase your focus So if it's a blurry screen, this is how you fix that All right, brannon the voltage is not nearly as high through that Uh that winding on that yoke as it is through the Like the anode cap nothing's going to be really as high as that There are points that you have to be careful of on a crt, especially if it's running any board You don't want to effectively touch together two points to bridge them two boards You don't want to touch together to zap yourself, but A lot of that stuff is isolated in the way it's designed on these newer age crts Which would be like after 1985 usually Uh kind of the composite and beyond video era um They're going to be isolated where the high voltage is I think if you just look at this one for example, and again, this is going to vary between crts And we're just discussing this one is the example model And your high voltage is coming in through here So the tubes is spot that the only exposed points you have in the tube are here And then you have the back here where the neck board is so obviously anything on the neck board Is also a point where you could get extremely high voltage Sit into you and hurt yourself the neck board when it's turned on Is high voltage city, okay It's really can be dangerous to touch anything on a neck board. That's where it's going The voltage is being sent in through there and high voltage through there And that's that's energizing the gun. Those are the two points the anode and the cathode. Okay Now there's other points you're going to have high voltage through them There's going to be down here where the transistor transformer is the flyback transformer And also the power supply here. We're using a switching power supply that's over isolated on its own Isolation But it does have points where it's running where voltage comes in you get plug in your voltage back here There's going to be points where it's running over to this power supply So there's always going to be chances of you know zapping something like that, but Um, that's a good question. There's not It's not the same amount of voltage going through. It's not like thousands 31,000. I think it's like 31,000 volts goes into the tube at the highest points usually and that's not how much voltage is going through the The yoke that would be insane But good question Let's continue finish up here with what steve has to say Hopefully okay set the other end of the crt. We got most of our stuff. That's pretty harmless now again I said this thing's broken so We may be able to just remove this whole piece and insert a scart input right here And then we could wire up rgb But this right here is the rf tuner and then back here We've got our chips that i'm sure is our um, you know Some kind of processor for menus and everything and then running the and then we've also got the jungle chip So we should be able to insert a rgb signal into that and that will come up in a future video And we'll also replace a lot of these bigger bad capacitors and then we'll talk about how to be safe around those Some of the things to note on here these areas was shielding Can't get very hot so be mindful of that and there's no reason to come down here and touch down here Where they could have a lot of electricity going through But just be careful of that if you ever have to come back here and work on it while it's running All right, so if you're brand new to crt's again Just be mindful of the things that are dangerous inside one before you go poking around in it really And if you have been working on it a while, then this is refreshing the areas on the crt that are hazardous Just remember that the best reason to get in here would be basically to clean it off at least first initially If you just pick up a crt and you don't even plan to mod it It's always great to clean it off and that way you could prevent any kind of problems from maybe happening Um, the next thing would be if you needed to make an adjustment on your screen brightness Or your focus or your convergence Now everything else would be done through the service menus So a lot of times you don't even need to open this up if you just need to fix something All right, so that looks like that's pretty much the end of that video and I I still get kind of surprised sometimes How many views that has it's a ton of views on that video so let me uh Let me get us back here to a normal spot I'm gonna turn that back up And we'll get back here their face view and uh Open it up. I'll open it up Guys, if you want to send me any suggestions or questions here live, you're welcome to do so But also if you're watching this on a playback and it's not live Feel free to drop a comment in the comment section so that if there's something that you think needs to be covered better in the in an actual safety episode again, this is just an open discussion that's like A bunch of people hanging out have a good old discussion about crts This is not meant to be your safety guide this video It's the discussion about safety open ended So do not go through here and start saying oh, it looks crazy. Steve told everybody to not use safety equipment to go in and use their bare hands and lick the anode cap and you know Smell it and make sure it was nice and hot before you you you stuck your hand in there and zapped yourself good. Okay Oh, yeah, thank you. No, thank you everybody. I really do. Thank you grail. It's again. It's an old video It's fun. I I'm giving myself a hard time because I like to and and it's it's safe to make fun of yourself Quick question, I gotta see a tea from an older person that it's kind of what it smells to be an old person You like if you're just have to go through it like I just showed you and try to clean your set you can watch that video again Uh, I mean, oh if you find a crt and you don't know anything about it Is it okay to bring it in the home and push the power button? Sure. Why not? I mean try it out But do it outside Try to you know do it outside in the garage If you're real concerned, you don't think it's safe open it up And just look don't start poking open the shell and looking in there and say oh looks it looks like everything's plugged in That's important. Yes, here's the shock will not grant you any superpowers Okay, not gonna happen Snuffer stuffer. So what happens sometimes with the yoke the yokes can get stiff and Most of that comes from maybe we'll maybe we'll be able to come in here and show you a little bit closer Oh coal is really snoring big time. It's gonna be more difficult But what happens to show you here kind of and let me get you Let's see Get a poker pointer So if we get down in here This area and that's probably difficult to see let's see if I can get a little closer Oh, that's better to get down in this area. What happens is you loosen up this yoke You loosen up your yoke ring over here, right? And it's still stiff Really, that's two things going on. You've either got some kind of like the epoxy Could be up here in spots and it's actually securing the yoke to the tube And to the wedge and it's all secured together that happens a lot. Okay And then if you go down here Uh Go down in here and what happens to is this you see this piece of there's a piece of tape On this tube. Yeah, the code the dog is snoring like crazy right now anybody can hear it Anyway, there's a piece of tape around the tube What happens is is this piece of plastic just melts to that tape a little bit and it forms a bond So it should generally have to do is loosen that up and then you start turning it slowly left or right working it back and forth And it'll eventually pop free from its point where it's stuck together And then you'll be able to move it. It'll be super loose. Okay So people are asking about let's see. What was I think your question is about the power cables missing If I generally see one with the power cable missing it usually means that some scrappers come and cut the power cable off Just to steal the copper out of the cable and left the rest of the set behind So that doesn't generally mean that it's bad A lot of times Well, uh demo Um I'm not sure which points you're talking about Sorry Just manhandle it a little bit. Yes. That's the that's the that's the real way to fix that Manhandle it give it a little bit squeeze turn it left and right it does they just get stuck That's quite a common thing where it's just not been moved in so long and that is a point right in here You got a lot of voltage again going through this part And it gets really hot right here right in here. So that kind of melts over time over 25 years happens Okay So this is uh, well This is a complex tighter version all right All right, everybody.
