The world's LOUDEST CRT - Vectrex 3000

Retro Tech 34 min Published Oct 2026

About this video

The channel puts a Vectrex on the bench, updating its capacitors and chasing down a short, with other repairs along the way.

Good to know: The tube and flyback hold a high voltage charge after unplugging. A knocked or cracked tube can implode, so protect your eyes and never lift it by the neck. Mains voltage is inside the set. Soldering means burns and fumes.

Why watch it

Tracking down a short is the thread through this Vectrex job, which the channel calls nasty. Worth a look if your own board has a fault that a capacitor swap alone has not cured.
