Signing UpStep 1: Make the belt...
First, cut a length of cat5 cable so it is long enouth to wrap around your waist (you can make it wrap around twice, if you want, but i didn't), but make it loose so you can work with it.
next get the db9 plugs, headphone plug and your soldering iron.
connect the cat5 cable's wires to the db9 plugs with the following pinouts:
male:
pin: | wire color:
1 Green stripe
2 solid Green
3 Blue stripe
4 solid Orange
5 Headphone jack
6 Brown stripe
7 solid Blue
8 Orange stripe
9 Not connected
the extra brown wire goes to the headphone jack
female:

Here's a link to it if you know what i can use it for
oh and my dad told me there was gases in a CRT, and my dad is known for being incorrect 80% of the time
The one that shocked me was unplugged ~5 minutes before electrically assaulting me. The CRT does not hold energy, and the amount of capacitance that the flyback has is likely lower than 5 pF. That's hardly anything. What holds charge are the capacitors that supply/buffer the flyback circuit.
This is a long thread. This is awesome.
1. The CRT is a vacuum, it is also known as a vacuum tube.
2. It is not filled with gasses. Why would they even think of putting neon or another noble gas inside a TV?
3. TVs won't shock you as long as they are old and aren't plugged in and all the capacitors are empty.
Sorry bioerror it's 3 against 1...
ok too much terms...may i shut up now
