They snagged a $40K+ environmental test chamber for just $1K

Linus Media Group’s been on a bargain-hunting spree, landing a second big‐boy environmental test chamber at auction for a mere grand. Problem is, the unit’s been powered off for over a decade, the original manufacturer has vanished, and it’s been lounging outside in a surplus yard—so it’s basically a giant box of mysteries and potential headaches.

They’re gearing up for the challenge, from hauling it through the door to teasing out life signs, all while plotting a plan to breathe new function into this dusty, water-cooled beast. Buckle up—this teardown/restore journey is shaping up to be a wild ride.
