    Recapping question

    I'am about to replace 5 caps on my inverter board for my lcd screen. The question i have is about the caps i got.The five caps i'am replacing are Samxon
    1000uf25v 1
    1000uf16v 2
    680uf25v 2

    The new caps i got are nichicon and it seems like 680uf25v caps i got are taller then the old ones and the 1000uf16v are shorter then the old ones i am replacing. Is it ok to use them?

    Are the old ones Samxon GF series?

    You can use different height and diameter caps as long as it can fit. You don't want to end up like

        It seems that Samxon GF are turning out to be duds. I have a couple that are dated 2008 and failed after 2 years.
