    Another need some help buying replacement caps for my viewsonic lcd.

    Well I dug out this broken viewsonic monitor that would have the power led blink on and off infinitely. So I opened it up and low and behold, about 6 capacitors are bulging.

    Anyways, I need help finding thier replacements.

    All are CapXon branded, which I am assuming are "CrapXon"

    2x 470uf 25v KF105c C650
    1x 470uf 10v KF105c
    2x 1000uf 10v KF105c C652
    4x 470uf 16v KF105c C702
    1x 22uf 50v KF105c C702

    1x 100uf 400V (this one according to some of the research I've done probably does not need to be replaced since it's on AC and not bulging)

    I actually browsed through digikey and came up with some panasonic FC replacements but I am not sure about the ESR ratings and ripples, so I am hoping you guys can point me to the right direction and which specific caps I have to purchase. Thanks!

    fc close and would be fine but i stock fm for a wider range of apps and less parts to stock.
    rubycon zl would be fine too and iirc are availible in the badcaps store.

      Does the ESR and Ripple ratings matter much?

          Is that a VE710B? If so, I just recapped one just like that and I can give you the exact list of capacitors you'll need and where to get them.

They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."

            No it's a VX1935wm. I went ahead and purchased some Panasonic FC ones that were the same specs but with the highest ripple rating they had.

            I assuming this will be fine no?

              On paper, CapXon KF has better specs than Panasonic FC. Chemicon KZE and Rubycon ZL would have been a better choice (Rubycon ZL is also available from the badcaps.net store here).
              I'm sure FC would work fine, though.

                  Yikes, I thought Capxon caps are the crap of the crappiest, so in my mind buying good panasonics would be leagues better.

                  Should I just go ahead and recap with the FC's since I've already ordered them and they did ship this morning. Cost me $8 and change but I would rather not have to buy replacement ones again since the monitor is not worth much.

                  Man I hope the FC will be ok, at least for another 2-3 years since this is just a little side project I dug up because the monitor was given to me for free broken a year ago for fixing someone's computer.

                    Yes, recap with FC.

                    Before I knew better I recapped two LCDs comlpetely with UCC LXZ, and I didn't hear the customer complain so far, so you should be alright with FC. But if it doesn't work, then order the correct series.
