The NEC 3D was very poorly made compared to the earlier and most of the
later 4D/5FG/etc monitors. I've yet to see one that still works properly.

How do u know? I had a 3D, still ok after 8 yr when I first
bought it years ago then later sold it still working. Only plm with
it was small tube.
Oh yeah, I also had 4FGe. Luckily picked it up for free. It snapped
and popped LOUDLY once in while, threw it out bec it's is really
uncertain when it whatever decides to die in big way.
I know 5D is still working at friend's home but it's HUGE and heavy
as an tank.
Cheers,
