A TV to Fix

[stormdog]

The person I'm seeing for electrolysis had an extra TV that stopped working. I was telling her about how I love fixing electronics and she offered to give it to me! I thought it would be nice to have an LCD TV as well as a plasma because the plasma does have some issues with burn in playing certain video games.

After I got it home I looked at it and realized it's also a plasma. It *did* seem rather heavy when I picked it up...

When plugged in, it makes sounds that I think are a relay engaging, and then disengaging. Just keeps doing that repeatedly. My completely uninformed guess is it's probably a power supply issue, and thus likely bad capacitors somewhere.

Unfortunately, it has so far meant that they're harder to remove than she expects, and they require extra zaps.

Deep roots.

I had a few, but thankfully only a few. Quite a lot of follicles will require multiple blasts.

Witch-hazel gel is your friend! :o)
