TL;DR

Linus Media Group somehow scored a $40,000-plus environmental test chamber for just $1,000 at auction—only to discover the manufacturer folded years ago, it hasn’t powered on in a decade, and it’s been baking outside in a surplus yard.

Now the team’s scrambling to haul the monstrosity into LTT Labs, figure out door clearances and water-cooling hookups, and coax a long-dormant control system back to life. Expect heavy lifting, reverse-engineering, and a healthy dose of “what did we get ourselves into?” along the way.
