CCFL output shorted by insect

Mitsubishi Diamondview CCFL inverter destroyed by contact with insect

This picture comes from a Mitsubishi Diamondview 24″ monitor.  An insect came in contact with the CCFL output of this inverter and was charred to a crisp.  This lead to arcing on the board which destroyed the PCB and the inverter.  Credit:  PodeCoet.
