    Re: how good are panasonic FL caps?

    Oh give me a break.



    FJ: 1140mA ripple, 0.03 ohm esr , 8x11.5 2000 hours

    FM: 820uF 6.3V ±20% 3000 Hrs 1240 mA 0.041 Ohm 8x15
    FR: 820uF 6.3V ±20% 6000 Hrs 950 mA 0.056 Ohm 8x13

    If you think 0.03 vs 0.05 is gonna make a difference, especially since the measurements are done at 20c and the capacitors are probably gonna stay at 20c for 0.1% of their usage... or that the designed relied on FJ caps handling over 1000mA ripple...

    Yes, HM will be almost spot on, but good luck finding it in retail shops since it's discontinued. This site's shop maybe has it.

        Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
        by momaka
        I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

        For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

        It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

        Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
        by eryjus
        Hello,

        First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

        I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

        I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

        Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
        by Paxman_Swede
        Hello!

        I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

        The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

        I have studied the board and...

        Replacement caps for Samson Resolv studio monitor 65A Amp board.
        by black6host
        Good day!

        I have a Samson Resolv studio monitor that has no sound output. I've opened it up and found two caps that are bulging on what I believe to be the power supply section of the amplifier board. The board is marked Resolv 65A AMP V1.2. The caps in question are YUSCON, 2200uF, 35V, 85C temp and have markings of RA(P) and are 16mm x 25.5mm tall. I've attached the schematic and the caps in question are C5 and C6. I'm assuming they are low esr caps. I've tested both caps and they test low uF, nowhere near 2200uF.

        I'm going to replace the caps and I'll be the first...

        EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP 256MD2 [256-A8-N542-T2] with bad caps - fixed
        by momaka
        I did it again – I had to fulfill my inner desire to fix yet another old piece of hardware. This one is actually kind of worthwhile, too – it’s an EVGA e-GeForce 7600 GS AGP video card, model P/N: 256-A8-N542-T2. With the popularity of “retro” PCs from the Win9x to XP era going up, and the diminishing supply of decent AGP cards, it is expected their prices will go up. Or is it? I bought the this video card rather on the cheap side (~$9 USD shipped to my door), because the eBay seller listed it for parts or repair (and correctly noted the bad capacitors.)

        So, here is the...
