The Finer Points Of A TV Power Supply

By Brian Snyder


When the first fish like creature that sprouted legs used those legs to crawl out on to some primordial beach, it must have freaked out considerably. There it was, on that ancient ground, feeling a whole host of new sensations, like being dry and feeling air. It was likely exposed to more light than it ever had, which means that is eyes had to adjust to that. It was all probably too much for its brain to handle, so much so that there was no way it could have ever predicted just how important it was, it likely did not have enough sentience beyond the need to find food and shelter. It was probably an instinctual animal. Nevertheless, while that creature was not aware of its own importance, succeeding generations of terrestrial animals would all evolve in different ways. Humanity never would have evolved if not for that one creature. The bipedal locomotion, walking and running, would have never happened if not for that one fish like creature. After, one must walk before one runs. That is true in people and it is true in evolution. But humanity did run, so much so that it built sprawling cities full of gleaming skyscrapers. But to do so required, and still requires, the heavy use of tools like machinery and automated systems. To operate those machines and system, there has to be a source of energy, like a TV Power Supply.

The old boob tube. The box that rots the brain. That is the television. It is a device, generally the central appliance in the living room. It is not much by itself, but it is a medium from which media is consumed by an audience.

The reason for the necessity of a power source is simple. Because most devices do not generate their own power. They merely channel energy from an outsider. Without that energy, they are left without the ability to come on much less function at their peak.

Now, finding that power source should not be too difficult. Most televisions get plugged into an electrical socket. Now, most modern houses will have multiple electrical sockets. Which means that the only difficulty in finding them will the physical act of searching.

Of course, money will have to be an issue. Money does not travel into a private residence of its own accord. It has to be delivered there, mostly by a company. Now, that company is going to expect some form of compensation for doing this. Which means there has to be a payment, which can happen every month.

Safety should always be a primary concern. As such, metals and liquids, which both conduct electricity, should be kept away from a socket. Doing so should keep things from burning down.

The reason that people watch TV is simple. Because it is entertaining. The audience can switch it on and either turn off or turn up their brains as they follow along their fiction.

Consistency is key. But the unfortunate thing is that sometimes the grid just goes down. Nothing to be done about it. But having a backup would not hurt. Now, generators can be purchased. But it the grid failure is far reaching enough, then even the stations that deliver the shows can be affected, which means that the lights can come on, however there will be nothing but static on the screen.

Society runs on machines. Those machines are controlled by people. Luckily, people have the means to control them to keep society functioning.
