I had a "home fixer" stop in the shop today asking if I had "bulbs" for the back of his TV. After a bit of questioning, brand size, etc. He told me he took out the old one and had it in the car. I was really confused trying to figure out what the heck he was looking for so I told him to bring it in so I could see what it really was(I'm thinking neon bulb, or LED or something). He comes walking back in with a towel wraped around the back neck of his 27" kv27ts31 picture tube. He somehow managed to snap off the heater/gun assembly without shattering the rest. After I recovered from disbelief I told him I don't carry them and to try Radio Shack. I just didn't have the heart to tell him he ruined his tv and if he brought it in I could have saved him the probable wrath of his wife. > > Just thought you all may enjoy this. > > L8R > Frank > Rs-Tek Inc. > > ------------------------------------------ > Make your TechAssist database better! > Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ > ------------------------------------------ > To UNSUBSCRIBE your email address, click here: > mailto:techassist-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > Or send a BLANK email with unsubscribe in the > SUBJECT field to the address above. > ------------------------------------------ Make your TechAssist database better!
