I have a Sanyo monitor in my donkey kong and the picture is vary clear and bright with no burns. The best thing to do with the old monitors is re cap the whole chassis or it will fail again.

Look at the manufacturer data. Needless to say, there are always exceptions . 46 years and counting on one of my Admiral sets.
