I know CapXon and Teapo lytics are considered crapacitors, but what about their polymer products? I'm asking because they are beginning to show up in PSUs.

Re: CapXon and Teapo polymers?
IMHO you can't really put the Capxon capacitors at the same level with Teapo electrolytics. Teapo are better.
As for polymer caps... my 2 cents... too soon to tell. -
Re: CapXon and Teapo polymers?
There's not enough anecdotal data, but if they're anything like Apaq polymers, then I would say that they should be avoided like the plague.
I've never seen any Teapo polymers in the wild, but Asus seems very fond of Apaq polymers, even putting them in their very high end videocards.Comment

Agreed. It's really too soon to tell who makes good polys, but they can be done wrong like apaq.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Do they explode?

Yup, just like my vent-less sacon FZsI love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

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...

Hi folks,
I have a couple of IBM NetVista desktop computers from around 2000-2001. They have Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) Pro286i motherboards, 733MHz Pentium III processors, and a whole bunch of bad Teapo capacitors. One board has visibly bad and venting capacitors, while the other doesn't look too bad so far.
The board with venting caps works fine, while the good looking board occasionally refuses to power on unless it's left for about 30 seconds after connecting the power - even with a known good power supply. (I am however aware I'll need to check the PSU... -
Hi group,
I am looking for a replacement for Nichicon PLV1J220MCL1TD (22uF, 63V, Conductive Poymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic, 8x9 but we can go up to 8x11).
While searching, I found some APAQ and ELITE replacements that would fit on our products (APAQ ARHA series and ELITE UGT and UPD series).
How good are these brand/series and what other alternative would you recommend? I've searched the big name already and didn't find an equivalent.
Thanks!05-27-2024, 08:08 AM -
For today's thread, I have a KingWin ABT-650MM ATX PSU. Official web page with the PSU specs is still up and can be found here:
http://www.rmac.kingwin.com/products.../abt_650MM.asp
I just can't help it when I see a broken / for parts PSU on eBay that's listed for cheap and looks at least somewhat interesting. Well, OK, I won't lie – on the outside, this PSU looks anything but interesting. It's a plain gray box with colorful “spaghetti cables”.
What mostly drew me into buying it is its 2x PCI-E power connectors... -
Recapping the power supply board for a Samsung 305T monitor, everything is Capxon except 2 Rubycons. I can't find data sheets matching these online, so don't know what ripple numbers, impedence, etc, to look for. There are a few different looking GL series data sheet PDFs, but the listing that matches the capacitance and voltage is a much bigger case size. I've narrowed down selections with lead spacing and case diameter, and what's in stock at Digi-key
1 x Capxon 1000uf35v GL C720(is this a part number or batch number, can't find it anywhere) 105c
