Doesn't the (big) capacitors inside stay charged for a couple of hours after the TV being disconnected?

- hazeii 7y agoA decent TV/CRT monitor should have high-value bleed resistors to discharge the capacitors, but since high-voltage resistors cost money they probably stopped fitting them about the same time as TV's stopped coming with circuit diagrams.
- jandrese 7y agoEven if they are installed you can't know if the resister has failed open until you try it. Always assume the tube is energized until you've grounded it.
