    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...

        Panasonic Heatpump Dryer Repair
        by BigPete
        I picked up a Panasonic NH-P70G2, though it would apply to the NH-P80G2, NH-P70G1 and NH-P80G1 models as well, as maybe some other models. This one was coming up with a H86 error. After lots of testing and googling it was an error with one of the thermistors in the condenser area.
        The attached French service manuals is incorrect, TH11 is gray and is a 95k thermistor and TH12 is black and is a 35k thermistor.
        In my case TH12 was bad. I was able to get a 35k thermistor on AliExpress. It's 6mm in diameter.
        Unfortunately the whole machine has to come apart to fix it.
        I have...

        Replacing electrolytic caps by solid caps on old motherboards
        by madscientist750
        I do have several old pc motherboards which i recapped 10 year ago and some of those caps are bulged now.
        I would like to upgrade them using solid capacitors. I do use them for testing and helping some alternative operating systems.
        I would like to ask if such an upgrade can be done, what should i have in mind when replacing electrolytic by solid caps and if such thing exist, if there are caps list for old motherboards. I would have to figure out what caps needs each motherboard and then prepare a list to try to ask for them on some electronics stores.
