Re: Teapo capacitor quality
In this instance, i am using it as a 24x7 home server in Thailand, average ambient temperature is 35 degrees.

Re: Teapo capacitor quality
I've had good experience with Teapo, but they do hate heat. One that I just found dead had 25,000 hours of use. The whole secondary of my Hipro unit has Teapo and that thing has been running 24/7 for about 18 months, checked them a month ago and they're all good.Leave a comment:

Re: Teapo capacitor quality
Confirmed, they're okay. I pulled some from an old PIII motherboard that exhibited classic symptoms of bad caps but none were bloated, and what'd ya know - they all tested good for ESR. It probably was a bad chipset. I still have a bunch of them lying around, a few have found their way in one project or the other, no issues yet.
I wouldn't rate them higher than the likes of Ltec - but Delta uses Ltec caps in a lot of stuff and they hold up good. I know a certain person here hates them with a passion, but they're a big step up from Capxon and Fuhjyyu. I'd say they will last 2 years.Leave a comment:

Re: Teapo capacitor quality
In power supplies they usually do ok. The only failed teapos I've found in PSUs were in units that were 5+ years old with allot of hours on them (corporate/commercial systems running 8+ hours a day, many running 24/7 to receive automatic updates from a central server). And most of the failed Teapos in these units were in hot areas (right next to coils or heat sinks). If the PSU is used for a "normal" home system you should be fine.Leave a comment:

Teapo capacitor quality
I bought a cooler master GX450 with Teapos caps, just wonder how is their quality in last 2 years?

I want to replace samhwa RG 250v 1uf capacitor which has no ESR value and has capacitance less than 280pf.
It is possible to purchase WCAP-ATG5 in local electronic shop.
But I want to know that whether WCAP-ATG5 capacitor has similar or better quality than smahwa capacitor or not.
Is there anyone who has experience to replace any bulge or faulty cap with cap from Wurth Elektronik?

Hi people, I hope this is the correct spot to post this, I'm new to the forum.
I have an RTX 3080 Founders Edition which has a burnt up capacitor (it was in parallel with another capacitor which appears damaged too), so I am hoping to be able to identify the capacitor values and order replacements.
I hope these photos make it clear which component I am referring to:
(yes, the soldering is a bit botched from removing the blown one, I know)
I have found the board schematic (attached), but there does not seem to be a boardview available. I have never... -
Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow.
But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. 
I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

Back in 2020 i bought a (2nd hand) compact ATX psu to replace my current one. My PC case only fits very short ATX power supplies so i didn't really have the choice of buying a decent 80Plus unit. The current unit is a modded YoungYear unit that i made a thread about a while ago:
A "nice" YoungYear unit? - Badcaps
The "new" unit is a KDM-M6480 480W psu, the 480W number is a typical KDM bullshit claim of course, but the 24A rating on the 12V rail seemed reasonable and the "Active PFC" claim gave me a bit of hope that this was going to be decent-ish.... -
I replaced some capacitor which is located on optical pickup pcb which is shown in the table below(PCB #2).Because it have been out of order.
Now,It works very well,But I just have found that all caps (6svpc100my and other part number as well) ,which is shown in the table below, has ultra-high ripple current spec.
It is not able to obtain any capacitor which can be a substitute for this ultra-high ripple current nichicon capacitor.
So I replaced it with samxon and rubycon's general capacitor(GP,YXA series).
I know that these capacitor will not last as long as nichicon capacitor...
