Cant go wrong with LG OLED though.
I get a cracking picture off mine.
Remember the triode and pentode valves? LolCheeky fecker.
Mind you they weren't much more modern when I started. The Phillips g8 chassis was very popular and the b&w only Thorn 1500 chassis. No wonder I have such a bad back these days.
Lol, I've had a few near misses. I remember shorting the mains out, out of curiosity when i was in primary school. LolI got a few good belts of electricity messing round with valve TVs and radios back in the day when the world was young. View attachment 140517
The anode cap from the line output transformer plugged into the crt screen. I was tasked with replacing a screen in my early days. It was quite a job removing boards to get clearance. After removing the old screen I had it on my shoulder and carried it out the back. It was sometime at this point when the charge left in the screen decided to discharge into my right ear.I remember messing about on the old TV, the bit that sticks into the tube..think it was called a 3 strip tripler or something like that and nearly got electrocuted lol..was really shocking
Thinking the same, a few burnt fingertips lol....I got a few good belts of electricity messing round with valve TVs and radios back in the day when the world was young. View attachment 140517
I have a Nilfisk pressure washer, great bit of kit imo…Ok i crumbled and bought a drain cleaner hose to clear a few pipes having drainage issues.
Bathroom has a long slow drain for shower.
Kitchen sink might have a bit of grease in it.
Garage might have a collapsed drain .
So thought its cheaper to buy a hose and try it.

They're what I started on Dar. Tv's were were becoming hybrid in those days where they had a mixture of valves and transistors. We were forever adapting to the ever changing technology. That has never stopped I suppose.Remember the triode and pentode valves? Lol
Paved the way for transistors?
