Comment on Ask HN: Tips for hacking a TV?parent

Comments

The UN24H4500 is an LED monitor.

The big risk in old TVs was the enormous voltages in the CRTs (which acted as a capacitor and stored energy even when off, and even pick up energy from background sources)

Aren't a lot of old TVs 'live chassis' as well as using very high voltages?

For faster startup, yes.
