Rember to short out the second anode on the CRT or you could get a real nasty shock that will make you
that's an understatement. I one had a CRT supply nearly kill me when the back fell off and old HP monitor. I attempted to catch the fall of the monitor after it was knocked over and grabbed the HV lead without thinking. I couldn't let go and I felt my heart race (though I was going to die). There is quite a bit of current in the CRT supply. I'd say probably enough to kill.
Off circuit a CRT can produce 40-45Kvdc when HV has no load attached. DANGER!
