    What I learned from my internship, which included fixing monitors: lightbulb glass is an excellent insulator for leaking capacitors.

    1. Break light bulb into large concave pieces.
    2. Cup piece around arcing leak of power supply.

    You can get a couple more years out of a monitor if you don't mind the occasional pops and crackles.
