I got a 13" Magnavox BP portable that went through a fire in 1992. The CRT was melted down onto the chassis, and there was an inch of burned debris allover it. The owner brought it to me, just to see what it might do.

Hooked up power, and using a remote, turned it on. It actually played, and had a good picture! We cleaned the chassis the best we could for the owner, and he took it back home. Later, he told me that it ran for the better part of 5 years. He still has it.
