    Any ideas on electrical requirement or wire pinouts to convert an old Laserscope monitor to a vectorscope? The schematic I have shows 12 dc needed to run the monitor. Gonna jumper the wires with a battery and see what happens

    You'd need a second deflection yoke and drivers for it, as usually flybacks are tied to the horizontal deflection circuit in this kind of CRT module. No flyback, no HV...
