What do I have here?

I would remove the aluminum heat sink under the three legged transistor but leave the IC chips in place. Not sure about the large aluminum foil capacitors. They add a lot of weight and detract from the grade of the board but removing them might confuse the sorter.

I agree. I used to get a regular supply of boards similar to these. They were a combo power and control board and since I got good amount of them I would remove the large caps and transformers. I would package them separately and get what I considered a good price from my buyer. Mike
