The Finer Points Of A TV Power Supply

By Brian Snyder


For the majority of its time on this planet, upwards of ninety percent if broken down, human society existed as nomadic hunter gatherers. These early tribes moved from place to place, foraging for food and other resources. Eventually though, these tribes settled down. Now, they settled down near bodies of water, because the crops they were growing and the livestock they were raising needed water, as did their own bodies. Some of these early settlements would be the seeds from which the great civilizations of antiquity sprouted. Of course, society evolved as it is wont to do, and these civilizations were eventually supplanted by modern nation states. Of course, to build these nation states required the use of tools and machines. Now, these machines need an energy source, like a TV Power Supply.

A television set is a box. Now, that box does nothing by itself. It can turn on if plugged in, but it really does not do anything by itself. But, it is a medium. It is the method by which media is delivered into a home.

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, the act of finding that power source, or at least the vestibule for it, is not going to be all that difficult. Almost every house built after a certain time period will have electrical outlets. Some will be older than others, but with the right cord, it should still work just fine provided the parts are still okay.

Of course, money is going to be something that matters. Now, the power grid needs to be maintained. So the customers have to pay for the service which it provides. Otherwise, it would fall into complete and total disarray. Now, that disarray means that the service is provides becomes unavailable. Of course, not paying the bill also means that the company can decide to just stop providing electricity to the people who are not paying.

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.

People watch TV because it is entertaining. They can park themselves on the couch, pick up the remote control, and then flip to their desired channel where their favorite program is playing. If not, they can just find something vaguely palatable.

The source should be consistent. No one wants to have their show cut off because the electricity went out. Unfortunately, that consistency cannot be controlled.

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