    Should be okay, though it depends where the cap is placed.

    In any case, the thing you really need to be most aware of is that those soft film caps are sensitive to heat from soldering, so try not to excessively heat the leads on that film cap with your iron.

      Thanks momaka: it's to be place in the H.O. and V.O. power supply of a Sony 36HS500,

        Should be okay, I think. I have seen plenty of Sony CRT monitors use those film caps on their D boards.

          Philips 37pfl560: Yellow picture
          by madyoyo
          HI.

          I have a weird problem with an old Philips 37pfl560 TV i put out of storage: the picture have a noticeable yellow hue, and its not caused by the settings (did a factory reset). I've never seen this before. I will try to get a photo with a real camera, with my phone its hard to see because of automatic white balance, but in real live the whites are really yellow.

          Anyone have an idea of what can cause this? Can CCFL tubes get "warmer" with time? This tv have several analog inputs,so its nice for retrogaming....

          Dell 2007FPB Yellow Light Problem
          by multimesut
          Hello friends,

          A yellow light was flashing on my monitor. It was like it was constantly cutting power. When I opened it up, I saw that the big capacitor in the high voltage line was leaking. I replaced it. When I turned it on for the first time, it had the same problem again. But then, interestingly, it got better. The yellow light was on steady. But the monitor wouldn't turn on. When I examined them with a thermal camera, I saw that the Fli5961-LF reached 50 degrees Celsius and the EM636165TS next to it reached 100 degrees Celsius and was drawing high current on the motherboard....

          Lg OLED rendering yellow as green, I could use your advice.
          by Big Pooka
          Hello all,

          I just picked up a LG OLED65E6P off of Craigslist (it was practically free). It functions flawlessly in all aspects except it renders yellows as greens. It does so regardless if the source comes through an HDMI port, or streams in through onboard services such as Netflix.

          I've factory reset all the color options, cleared the panel noise via the onboard option, and waisted half an hour talking to LG customer service.

          Have any of your dealt with this situation?

          I understand OLED's are susceptible to burn-in, and looking at the...

          Original NES power issues
          by sli4
          I recently turned on my old NES to find the red light won't go on at all. When powered on it shows black bars on the tv and a loud buzz through the tv speakers. Powering it off, the buzz goes away and tv goes back to normal (white snow).

          I tested the power supply itself and it is outputting 9V as it should - first two solder joints on the board at the power port show the same.

          Here's where it starts getting funky - When powered on, one side of the 7805 voltage regulator is showing 18V and the other is about 8.7V (center 0).

          On the big blue connector I get...

          Mid/late 80's Nichicon Yellow Caps
          by nick3092
          I recently acquired a set of Bose Roomate speakers from the mid to late 80's. Basically the right speaker cabinet is completely passive, and the left one has the power transformer and amplifier circuit in it. Out of curiosity, I opened it up to see what the circuit looked like. Looks like they used all Nichicon VX (2x 4700uF/16v for smoothing off the bridge rectifier), a couple random Nichicon SE series sprinkled on the board, and what really caught my eye - 2 yellow sleeved Nichicon caps (both 1uF/50v with no real series marking. Below are pictures of the caps. The only thing not shown in these...
