I was about to toss out some old computer monitors, but thought to pull the flyback transformers for use in some of my high voltage projects. Question: Is there some simple trick to determine which pins are which? Maybe there is somewhere online that posts pinouts for more common flybacks found in more common monitors and TVs?
Also, maybe someone knows some cute trick to removing them from the circuit board? There's a lot of pins and they are soldered in pretty securely.
