Well no joke, I had the TV running a few times today and did on final test for a half hour or so and just started thinking "hmm this thing must be good to go!". I got up and just started to walk to the other end of the room when i heard a loud pop! I turned around and the set was still working just fine but i still ran over and turned it off and unplugged it and carried it to the kitchen island to pop the back off and take a look. I couldn't see anything burnt or anything so I plugged it in and reached for the power button but it popped once again but too fast for me to bring my head back around to see where. I then powered it on and off a couple times to see if i could see where it arced but it didn't do it again. sounds like I still need to locate a new flyback for the set....
