Cut along the join in the case-usually obvious and in the middle- Use
a small hacksaw on the long sides and wherever else you can; then use
a Dremel with cutoff disk on the tricky bits/corners.

Subject: More data on dead wall wart
So I double checked the AC voltage output on this TI wall wart for
the
Silent 700 model 703 and it definitely has no voltage (and
correction on
my meter settings: it has 200VAC and 600VAC).
I also checked and there is infinite resistance between any
combination
of pins (I checked on all settings from 2 ohms to 20 Mohms). For
the hell
of it I checked for DC voltage and there also is none.
Foo.
Next step is to crack it open. Anyone know a good way to open up
these
permanently sealed transformers?
