    Aliexpress capacitors?

    Good, bad, fake or pot luck?

    I know, if they claim to be a name brand but are too cheap, most likely fake, but if not branded?

    I wouldn't, I've seen many cases where the caps are rated for a lower voltage than what they print on the sleeve and will explode if exposed to voltage printed on the sleeve

    Any reason not to order from DigiKey, Mouser, CPC Farnell, RS Components, or LCSC (for electrolytic cap brands on LCSC I choose Cornell Dubilier, Kemet, Kyocera AVX, NCC, Nichicon, Panasonic, Rubycon, Suncon [not Su'scon], Taiyo Yuden, TDK, Vishay Intertech. and Yageo) (for polymer, you can use just about anything on there with a datasheet).
