I've tried the light bulb trick with some success, myself, and have attempted the charged capacitor trick. While it didn't work in my case, I think under the right conditions it could do well.

The crt in my CTC-15 had one open filament. I tapped lightly on the neck with a screwdriver while it was connected to the tester and the dead gun came to life. I may have had to do it once more, shortly after. Knock wood, no more trouble.
