The tv circuit boards have some small copper windings, and small aluminum heat sinks, and transformers with wire in them.
Thanks for the post mechanic, I had been getting the copper windings and heat sinks off the boards but missed the transformers, wasn't sure what that piece was actually till i looked up TV transformer on Google images actually. good to know, Can these actually be opened and broken down or do they just get scraped as electrical motors? Thanks again!
