A while back I took apart an old microwave for a project and was left with this guy. I don’t need it, but also don’t really know how to get rid of it safely. If anyone wants it, it’s yours!
Alternatively, if someone knows the proper way for me to chuck it, I’d also appreciate that knowledge.
I could be mistaken, but I don’t think there is anything especially hazardous in a magnetron, other than the usual stuff in most electronics… The ‘bad stuff’ associated w/ a magnetron is the energy it puts out when properly powered up, but when not powered it is no better or worse than any other electronic part of similar vintage…
IOW - treat it the same way you’d handle any other sort of e-waste…
