Default color for panasonic caps?

I just order some panny's from digikey and it came today and they are not the normal black.
Is it normal for panasonic to release FC caps in blue?

The 330uf on the right are dark blue then the 470uF on the left.

Yes. FC is blue. I also believe the newer series FR (to replace FM) is white/black.

Does anyone have pix of the bottom of Panasonic FLs?

I came across some that had the OST/evercon style bullseye bung. They got changed, since they looked questionable.

There were four mass killing attempts that week. Only one made the news because it helped the agreed upon media narrative.

Oregon. NOT a gun free zone. Shooter confronted by permit holder. Shooter commits suicide. Only a few casualties.
Texas. NOT a gun free zone. Shooter killed immediately by off duty cop. Only a few casualties.
Connecticut. GUN FREE ZONE. Shooters kills until the police arrive. Suicide. 26 dead.
China. GUN FREE COUNTRY. A guy with a KNIFE stabs 22 children.

So much for "Knives have legitimate purposes, guns do not."
