    Help Identify CCFL Tubes

    Greetings BadCappers:

    --Would you please have a look at these C Shaped (I.E. Rectangular Bend) CCFL Tubes from a 32" LCD TV Display Panel with a smashed screen. A friend of mine allowed me to remove the CCFL tubes before he recycled the metal. I would like to try to sell these on eBay, but I am not sure what TV models they are compatible with. They are 720mm, and 3.4mm wide, with 30mm center to center. I recently learned that eBay will automatically donate a percentage of sale to charities. So I am now donating 10% ($1.00 minimum) of all my sales to the Marine Corps and Law Enforcement Foundation, which helps the children of the fallen with education costs. I know a lot of BadCappers are selling on eBay and I encourage you all to donate to your favorite charity.

    --I want to thank all my fellow BadCappers for their help, which has allowed me to rebuild various items, which has allowed me to defray some of the costs of my electronics hobby and and has provided repaired dumpster items, for use by family, friends and the less fortunate.

    You need to know the model of the panel they came from. I think only Samsung use U shape CCFL like that, they have a patent on it I believe.

      I have also seen Chi-Mei panels with U shaped CCFLs.

        I believe Chi-Mei bought a considerable amount of Samsung's IP a while back for the small LCDs, then Samsung had a change of thought and bought it back again. For a long time you could see Chi-Mei T-cons and inverters with Samsung's Lead Free (LF) logo. I think they still own the IP for 26" and below, but Samsung make 32" and above.

          Greetings BadCappers:

          --Thanks to Tom66 for the timely and accurate response to my info query (as per usual). I am afraid the panel is long gone, but I do appreciate the information he was able to provide. It will definitely help. Shipping these ~30" long CCFL Lamps is a bit of a nightmare. USPS wants $11.30 (Priority Medium) to ship one of their 36" Triangular Tubes, so I am making my own tubes out of cardboard, and keeping the total weight below 13 ounces. So First Class shipping will be ~$3.00. Thanks for the help.

            HANNSG Hi221 -- 2 secs to black feat. CCFL flicker & "burn" marks on power board
            by ttmi100x
            Greetings everyone,


            I have a HANNSG Hi221 monitor that exhibits two seconds to black issues (backlight goes off, display is still on as confirmed by shining a flashlight on it) with some additional oddities...


            The monitor failed on me with a standard "2 seconds to black" some time ago prompting me to initially replace most of the electrolytic capacitors (some of them were bulging/leaking).
            Things kinda sorta worked for a night, then the problem returned along with some flickering and "buzzing" noises.

            Upon closer inspection...

            Help on Samsung Syncmaster T220 dead ccfl lamp
            by mikey5791
            Hi,

            This monitor previously is my main working monitor which i have been using for 8~9 years. Yesterday, when i switched on my pc from fresh to power on, the monitor is just black no display. I started dismantle to look inside the monitor power board but nothing looks suspicious or burnt. So i took my external ccfl inverter to try to power the monitor ccfl lamps which consisted of 2 lamps on upper part and 2 lamps on the lower part.

            Found out the upper ccfl lamp which is supposed to connect to cn304 on the power board did not light up. Then i installed a used working...

            DVR HIKVISION DS-7208HWI-E1/A BOARD DS-80104 REV 2.2 help identify burnt components
            by thesame
            Hy guys , i have a DVR board DS-80104 REV 2.2 that was powered wrong, i have some smds on the board that are blown and i can't identify them , maybe if someone has this board somehow and we can identify the smds', i have searched online and i can't find a schematic.
            The smds are SOT-23-6 , one of them i think it has the marking ADJF since i found another one on the board with this marking , but the other one it seems that it starts with AG or it looks like. I would really apreciate if someone could help me identify those IC's .

            Lenovo Legion 7 - Help Identify IC
            by silver60618
            Hi gang, its a long shot, but working on Lenovo Legion Pro 7 motherboard NM-F091, and trying to identify this component near GPU with marking "eHFQH" that is burned and shorting the board. Looks like power management IC

            I couldnt find any schematic or boardview. The CPU side also has same chip. Any way to identify this chip? or take measurements from the good chip to determine what it is?

            Any help would be appreciated...

            How can I identify varistor which have been blew up?
            by chth96
            I mistakely pluged 100v japanese retro game console to 220v outlet.
            So It seems that glass fuse and varistor have been blew up.
            I can identify that voltage and ampere value of glass fuse(250V LF 1.6A),but It is impossible to identify varistor type in my sega saturn PSU(YAMAHA 35M07U XR258)
            Is there any way to identify varistor type in my sega saturn PSU?
            Any reply would be appreciated.


            EDIT:
            It seems that I finally found out what type this black varistor is. It is Panasonic ERZV05D221 “ZNR” Transient/Surge Absorbers (Type D) Varistor Voltage...
