Oh I know about removing the cataracts from older CRT's. The rectangular ones from the 60's especially like to implode because the pressure isn't equal on all sides.

I know full well that newer CRT's have very, very thick glass in the front and an implosion band.

I know all this. Logically I know all of this. That's why I even did the swap.

But tell that to the instinctual part of me that still fears an implosion or a 25 KV shock from that anode lead.

I mean I pushed past it. I got it done, and logically I know there is little real danger, but still. First time and all.
