One of our monitors, an LG CRT, stopped working one day. About a year later I replaced the fuse (a slow blow ceramic, but I couldn't find a ceramic one) and it works fine. The fuse wasn't rooted like the one shown in this thread.
I have no idea why it blew in the first place. Any ideas?

Flyback transformers from thrown out CRTs are cool. I've possibly overloaded one (it doesn't seem to work as well anymore) and wrecked two MJE13007 transistors (high voltage switchmode PS transistors, and they still died) while playing with HV arcs.
