My family got a Hotpoint Console Television in 1958 after my mom went to work so we could get one. My Dad who would take over the television on the weekends for sports didn't want to save for one. We had it till around 1971 when it finally gave up the ghost. Lots of history seen on that tv, Kennedy/Nixon Debate for the 1960 election, Cuban Missile crisis, Kennedy Assassination, Viet Nam War to the moon landings. All seen in shades of gray on that screen.

I remember my first shock when I was about 4 years old from a TV like that. Somehow it set me up for a career in electricity and electronics.

GE owned Hotpoint. In the mid 50's they started selling Hotpoint branded TV's so as to give their dealers a line of TV's to sell too. They were all GE on the inside.

+armadillo platypus I don't think General Electric in the US ever owned Hotpoint in the UK. I think GE made an agreement with GEC company not to operate in the UK since the names were so similar, so when they bought out Hotpoint they only owned them in North America. Over here Hotpoint appliances were pretty decent quality and shared many parts with GE appliances.

Great video. Yes, Hotpoint was a GE subsidiary at some point, and did a lot of rebranding of GE goods as Hotpoint. I don't know the full story, but I have seen a lot of GE products done up at Hotpoint. These are cool sets.Not just the styling, but the electronics are good as well, and they perform fairly well and reliably. I also like the fact that there was no power transformer in these, making them fairly portable as well.

Sir - just wanted to chime in: Am both into vintage electronics (that's what I came here for at first) but am ABSOLUTELY into the exploration/abandoned stuff too. So I appreciate the whole thing. Been doing vintage electronics restore/rebuild as long as I can remember but also have been real big on urban exploration and abandoned sites; and it's actually really hard to find anyone else who *is* into that stuff.Keep doing what you're doing. And hope you continue to find more interesting stuff -- whether it's a thing or a place. (I wish we had more abandoned places out here, and wish I had more folks who would be willing to adventure into them with me. So I kind of live vicariously through your adventures. :) )

I've bought the schematic. Just been waiting for months because I cant afford the caps for it, I haven't tried to power it up or anything yet, looks all original inside. I guess there's not many people my age this excited to be in the back of an old tube crt.

@AMStationEngineer8 жыл бұрын
shango066 I'll PM this evening if you'd like. It's a marvelous tool for the front end, and should suffice for older sets. The drive sections are designed for solid state (tripler) equipped sets. I've seen that HP scope in a few of your videos, it will interface nicely. I did not find it to be up to Sencore's usual standards with regards to chroma signal generation, though. It must be connected to their VG91 video generator, and it's specialized interface cable. The generator controls certain sections of the blanking and sweep interface sections. One last item: seems susceptible to noise from CFl's and electronic ballasts. It has both diode and fuse protection. I never had problems with either... I repaired a few circa 2007 "RCA institutional CRT sets" before Christmas, and it provided the signal and voltage substitutions which made the tasks much easier. Vintage sets manufactured between '74 and '08 will prove your acquisition to be a wise move. It bailed my tail out of the fire more than a few time with module problems on Chromacolor II and System III sets. One caution, I may have fried a flyback during a ringing a while back. Use caution when performing that function; I've been gun-shy with that function since! Hope this helps, and please post a video once you begin using it!

I watch every video you put online, even if you seem to think it would be boring to watch. They are always entertaining and I still get some interesting information out of them. Don't worry and just do it the way you're used to. We can "adapt" more than you think :) This video DID make me realise I should perhaps be a bit clearer in my own videos about things that seem obvious, like NOT trying to solder to aluminum or always check whether one's dealing with a hot chassis. Maybe I do take for granted the watcher knows what I'm talking about and I shouldn't. I do always warn people that working on TV's is dangerous, what with the high voltage and such. Anyway, good video, instructive AND entertaining :)

I don't know why you have people complaining about the content having various subjects on this channel. This is free content, so if they don't want to watch a particular video, don't watch it. Nobody has a gun to their head, forcing them to watch something that doesn't peak their interests. There are lots of channels I'm subscribed to that sometimes has content I'm not interested in watching...I just skip over it. Even the most popular channels have 1-2 uploads a day, so its not like it is filling up my feed with content I don't want to watch to the point where it is obnoxious.

Hotpoint and GE were sorta kinda the same company. I had a hotpoint washer and dryer that had most of the parts inside labeled GE. I once owned one of those sets, I remember the CRT was a 14QP4, think it was a 90 degree deflection. AC/DC hot chassis. Real fun to work on, I didn't know any better back then, I was all of 14 years old fooling around with junk electronics. I agree that the vertical section is tricky, but those old caps were usually 20% tolerance anyway!

I even watch the mine videos even though they aren't my favorites but I still find them interesting and even funny at times. I really enjoyed the video where deep in a mine somewhere you came upon a dead mouse and immediately inserted a few seconds of Deadmau5. I wonder how many people that watched that video actually got that vs how many it just went over their head. I've noticed you have great taste in music also. Must be from all those years working in the club. Anyway just keep doing what you're doing and I'll keep watching you doing what you're doing.

I like the variety, usually check whatever you upload, and if I don't like it, well, I can just click and go watch something else, it's not hard at all, people. Reading the title of the video is helpful too, since nobody forces you to watch all your subscription feed, or to subscribe for that matter. Also I believe that people like you or me are not making a living out of our channels. Personally, I see mine as a place where I can show people the stuff that I like to do, with no strict particular topic for videos. So if you ask me, just do whatever you want. Not like me or anyone could stop you anyway.

Many moons ago, I worked as an assistant to a highly experienced Gun Smith. We had a sign on the wall about pricing, I don't recall the exact wording but it was something like Per hour: On our own, 22.00 If you watch 33.33 if you tried to fix it first 100.00 per hour. This is valid pricing, and should be a policy in all work where the art of fixing takes talent and training is expensive.
