I just aired and threw out a very weak A63, or 25V CRT with an old power cord tied to one of the mounting lugs in order to lower it into the dumpster to avoid a loud noise. Once the cord got the full weight of the CRT it was cut clean through. Still, far less noise than expected.

Defeating the interlock though is especially risky when there's a polarized plug involved. One wrong move could "liven up" a chassis that is normally connected to neutral.
