    Old Tube TV as well. Honestly any of those old high voltage requiring machines are DANGEROUS. Capacitors are nuts man, and not something you should be playing around or with. The manual turn-table microwave honestly sounds like a great, safe way to troll the kids.

      I have an excessively OP theater amp and repaired it myself. I let those caps chill for weeks and routinly flipped the power switch on and off to drain them. Was still scared. I’m also a bit of a pussy when it comes to electricity.
