That Amber Glow: Fixing a shed-found 9" composite monitor (USI Pi4)

Adrian's Digital Basement ][ 42 min Published Aug 2026

About this video

Found in the same shed as the recent Apple II+, a broken USI Pi4 amber monitor is the next job, and the maker sets about getting it working.

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 as well.

Why watch it
