Finally decided to get a proper TV for myself - one that i don't have to fix (or at least, so I think ).
It's a 60" LG 1080p plasma: https://www.lg.com/ca_en/tvs/lg-60PZ850-plasma-tv
Went and took a look at it today, it has been very well cared for. There were no dead pixels, no sparklies, no traces of burn-in. It is maybe a bit less bright than i'd expected, but that's a non-issue for me as i only watch shows at evening/night anyway - if anything, i appreciate a screen that can be dimmed to a very low level rather than a very bright one.
I plan to give it a good cleaning inside and a full recap and resolder of the coils and plastic caps on the sustain boards, as I want to wall mount it and with its 38.5kg (without stand) i don't want to have to take it back off anytime soon. The current owner has it wall mounted too. Besides the caps, anything else to watch for on these sets?
Thank you.
