    Panasonic Vs. Nichicon...

    Panasonic:
    6.3V 1000UF= Impedance 0.038, Ripple Current 1290, Life 4000 hours, Low impedence, FM series...
    16V 1500UF= Impedance 0.018, Ripple Current 2600, Life 5000 hours, Low impedence, FM series...

    OR

    Nichicon:
    6.3V 1000UF= Impedence 0.087, Ripple Current 840, Life 6000 hours, Lead Free, UHE series...
    16V 1500UF= Impedence 0.031, Ripple Current 1910, Life 7000 hours, Lead Free, UHE series..

    I wish to know what the higher quality capacitor is.. I don't care about the life span really. Just which ones will be a better circut protector..

    Thanks,
    CP

    I'm partial to the Nichicons, but either one will be acceptable for your application.

        Cyberpower 1500AVR UPS repair
        by quickname
        I'd like to start out by thanking this forum for providing the info to be able to repair my 15 year old CP1500AVRLCD UPS. Here is all the info I gathered during my trouble-shooting and re-capping.

        Like clockwork, I've had to replace the SLA batteries every 4 years. It was about that time and the UPS was acting like it needed new batteries... randomly shutting off with AC present, not being able to charge fully, and poor runtime when AC was removed. So, I replaced the batteries but noticed that it was not charging properly.

        I decided to verify that the batteries were...

        Looking for best replacements for Capxons, but can't find data sheets
        by withalligators
        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

        1 x Capxon 1000uf35v...

        Capacitor Diarrhea - Nichicon PL Series
        by DrewPhillips
        Hello All, I have on the bench a couple of PSU's which have some failed Nichicon PL series caps. They didn't "puke" their guts through the top, but instead "diarrhea'ed" corrosive brown electrolyte through the bottom, down the legs and onto the board. On one cap, the electrolyte rotted the cap right off the board leaving 2 little stubs, and also corroded a trace on the foil side.

        The PSU's are Power-One MAP series and are ringing-choke topology. The semiconductors have date codes in 1993. The PSU's were used in a commercial application, fan-cooled. They had failed...

        Original XBOX Cap ripple current range
        by swofra
        Hey all,
        Looking to recap a six or so XBoxs comprised of every major mobo variant 1.0-1.1, 1.2-1.4, & 1.6 and am trying to decide on which Caps to get.
        A) For the Caps located by the CPU, I know they should be low ESR/impedance, but what is considered low, anything less than 100?

        B) Additionally, what minimum low frequency and high frequency ripple should I be looking for? I know higher is better but with so many cap choices and price points out there, I'm just trying to narrow down my search window.

        C) I've read some stuff on the various threads...

        Acer Ferrari F-20" monitor display interference and replacement capacitor selection
        by ADV
        Good day everybody

        I hope I'm posting in the right section - I am new to this awesome forum.

        I have received an ACER Ferrari F-20" LCD Monitor to repair.

        It produces interference lines on the image displayed and slowly rotates across the whole screen, with respect to the center of the screen. One rotation takes about 4 minutes and the cycle repeats over and over.
        For some reason the On Screen Display Menu is not affected when switched on with the Menu button.

        I opened the external 18V power supply and see no bulged capacitors...
