Other than size, you cannot tell much about a TV tube from the TV's model number. You need to get the actual tube number from the TV tube, and compare it to the tube in the monitor using this tool:
http://tubular.atomized.org/
If the tube size and the three specs listed on the tubular site match, the TV tube should work in your monitor. You will also want to check to make sure that the mounting tabs at the corners of the tube are configured the same... if the monitor's tabs are oriented forward and the TV's tabs are towards the back, the tube may not fit properly in the frame.
The yoke is a different story. Many people try to use the TV's yoke in the monitor, while others prefer to keep the monitor's yoke and put it on the TV tube. If you want to keep the original monitor yoke you have to also make sure that the TV's yoke is removable... some are semi-permanently bonded to the tube which makes swapping yokes very difficult.
I will check the tube number today. Is it better to use the arcade monitor yoke than the TVs?Thank you!
OK, now you need the tube number off of your monitor so you can compare the specs between the two. A63AFW32x is not in the tubular database, but A63AFW22x and A63AFW42x are in there and it's a safe bet yours will have the same specs as those two.
If you can't find a tube model number on the monitor, chances are that tube will work fine... the two voltages are standard and I'm pretty sure most 25" k7000s use the CR-23 neck socket.
same tube (A63AFW32X) just getting around to it now.The Vertical is a bit low but it will probably still work the k7000 is pretty forgiving, just hook it up and see.
What tube your last post was like idk 6 years ago lol
As others showed you in this thread you can look it up on Tubular, but if its a tv tube id just try it and see, but im also capable pf just fixing my k7000 if I blow a HOT etc.same tube (A63AFW32X) just getting around to it now.![]()
I have done vertical tubes in this range; I believe my test tube is about this reading. I can double check when i get home.Horizontal reads 1.3 ohms
Vertical reads 7.9 ohms
Is this tube compatible with the k7000? can I just drop in plug on the k7000 neckboard and im good to go?
