    I guess I am not as adept at breaking down appliances as y'all! I had to break down an AC/DC adaptor (class 2 transformer) the other day to ascertain what the copper recovery was for a customer that had 1,500+ pounds of them. It took me 20 minutes to get the ounce and a half of copper out of it. BTW...that made it only a 16% recovery. (Copper only made up 16% percent of the total weight of the adaptor.)
