I hope that your CRT is fine, fixing it won't be a trivial thing and the current there is huge. I used to have two CRTs (LG flatron and some really old noname) that at first started to occasionally display everything with yellow hue and after a while it smoked a bit and get slightly fried on the inside, fortunately it didn't set on fire.

im pretty sure the crt itself is all good fortunately, im quite scared of them so ive been pretty cautious about it lol. thats too bad about your crts

Only other advice I can give at this point regarding the eMac is check to make sure you pressed the PMU Reset Button after installing a new PRAM battery (https://files.catbox.moe/8m685b.jpg). Also, the video you shared of you trying to turn it on: from my experience, it's not supposed to sound like that. My only guesses at this point would be either Power Supply failure, capacitor problems, or faulty CRT.

Also, a couple more resources I'll share: A manual I found on Apple's website (https://cdsassets.apple.com/live/6GJYWVAV/user/ma235_emac_2005_user_guide.pdf) and a video of how a normal boot-up is supposed to look (https://files.catbox.moe/1h6xgd.mp4). Good luck!

in your "Down Under by Men At Work on repeat" era, I see...been there...

the spirit of australia took over last night

Absolutely fascinating...

i live a very tumultuous life... believe it or not the 3rd computer ive ever bought in my life that didnt work right when it was sold as working

Yo, an eMac!! I remember buying one a few years ago, they're very interesting machines. Sorry to hear your's isn't working. Have you tried removing the PRAM battery and turning it on, or reseating the RAM sticks in case they got loosened during transit?

this is very exciting, intrigued to see how things turn out. I love your micro page btw

i never considered just straight up taking the battery out. i did order a replacement but in the meanwhile i might aswell give that a try. i also havent tried moving the ram, ill try that out next if taking the battery out doesnt work. really really really apreciate the advice, ive been struggling to find any info about the emac :'')
