I have some TVs I've broken down and am now taking apart the circuit boards. I have one question though. There are big transformer looking things on the boards, I've taken them off and can see a bit of copper inside of one but taking a hammer to it isn't working. Am I right in guessing they're a transformer and is it worth trying to break em apart? Haven't gotten a sledgehammer yet, so that might work in breaking it apart.

This has what I'm talking about on it, it's in the lower right hand corner of the board.



Thanks for any help...
