Unfortunately, not a good idea. Most currently in use computer monitors and TVs, for example, have CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent light) backlights, thus the same hazardous materials issue as was mentioned regarding CFLs.
We've gone from lead as a hazardous material in CRT monitors to mercury in LCD panels. I'm not sure if we're making progress or not :-( 73, Al On Sun September 27 2015 3:22:26 pm Ralph Parker wrote: > >Bucket treatment: Find a big bucket large enough to hold the defective > > device, > > >fill the bucket with water, put the device in twice, take it out once > > I've had a considerable amount of satisfaction using a sledgehammer. > > VE7XF > > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[email protected] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
