I have seen a 25V go up before, it was VERY unpleasant...

One second it was there, the next it was GONE.:yikes:

Why are my ears ringing? :O
And what's this cloud of phosphor doing floating in the air? :sigh:

Great footage!

I have a mint condition Tek 453 dual trace scope that feels absolutely indestructible. I swear I could drop this onto the floor and it would still function. Beautiful old equipment
