Depends entirely on what the TV is made for.
Most run on mains voltage - whatever that is where you live, but probably either around 120 VAC or 240 VAC.
But some are made for caravans, RVs, cars and trucks, and can run on either 12VDC or 24VDC.
We're talking about high voltage when we talk about the operating voltage of a cathode ray tube (CRT). The operating voltage can vary, as you can imagine. Tens of thousands of volts are not uncommon.
It's basically a highly specialized transformer.

The conclusion of voltage analysis for the picture tube and chroma section in a CRT (cathode ray tube) television reveals that proper voltage levels are crucial for optimal image quality. The picture tube requires precise voltages for the electron gun to accurately control the beam's intensity and focus, while the chroma section depends on stable voltage levels to ensure accurate color reproduction. Any deviations can lead to issues such as poor image clarity, color distortion, or flickering. Overall, consistent voltage regulation is essential for maintaining performance in both the picture tube and chroma components.
The picture tube is the main component of a television set.The picture tube is the main component of a television set.
Excessive STATIC electricity from the high voltage charge used in the picture tube.
Those were picture-tube TVs. The picture tube was almost as long as the TV screen was wide.
If you mean display type, then there are rasterized picture tube televisions, LCD televisions, and plasma televisions.
We have stopped using lamps valves or any sort of bulbs aside from the picture tube many years ago so you Will get 1 at best. the tube.
It shouldn't. If there is no actual power to the CRT (no picture visible) then there really can't be any degradation of the tube.
A replacement tube (if it is available) is likely going to cost almost as much as the whole television. If you need a new tube, it's time to ditch the tube TV and get a flat screen.
Electrons striking the phosphors at the front of the picture tube are what generate the photons our eyes see. Electrons (negatively charged) don't move unless forced to by either an electric field or a magnetic field - in this case an electric field - created by the circuitry in the TV. The distance from the back of the picture tube neck where electrons are generated (the cathode, negative charge, repels electrons) to the front of the screen where they are needed is large, perhaps 20 or 30 or more inches. Though the picture tube is evacuated, it is not a perfect vacuum and many atoms still exist inside it, which results in resistance to electron flow. Ohm's Law - Voltage = Current x Resistance - determines what happens electrically. Since the resistance of the atoms inside the tube is quite high to electrons, a high voltage is required to overcome it and force the electrons to move and strike the screen in sufficient quantity (current), after which they fall back to the metal coating inside the picture tube (the anode, positive charge, attracts electrons), completing the circuit that started at the cathode. A lower voltage will simply not provide enough force to do the job.
