    Panasonic capacitors

    ...that actually say Panasonic on them. Anyone know why? I have never seen them but with the Matsushita M in the square. Photo is from JonnyGuru's In Win Commander III 800W PSU review.

      Yeah, that's just bizarre. And it's very doubtful that In Win would source fake ones

        Yeah. Everything else about them looks genuine. The vent stamp and colours look correct for that size.
        I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

          The D/C is 32nd week of 2014. A new style? Generally or just large can types?

            If that date code is correct then they're surely fake since OklahomaWolf wrote the review on 6/10/13

                Would Panasonic confirm if these are real or not?

                  You may know that Matsushita has changed its name to Panasonic Corporation, to make their corporation name more "global", since many people recognize the Panasonic brand.
                  My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

                    Re: Panasonic capacitors

                    I wonder if that is the actual date code because from this thread, someone from Panasonic responded saying the date code is basically month and day without the actual year.

                      According to that thread, these caps should be from 14th February 2013

                        Good catch, as they said 0921 means either means either September 21 of 2000 or 2010 so the first digit would be the same as the last digit of the year, they should stick to 2 digit years to make it easier. So in the case of the pictures above, if it was 2013, December 14, would it be 31214 then?

                          Looks like it could be because they are larger. (And hence have more room to put something like that)

                          I think I've seen Nippon Chemi-Con capacitors that actually say that in the shield logo on larger capacitors. They just have more room, so why not put their name on it? xD

                            Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock
                            by sam_sam_sam
                            I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

                            This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

                            After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
                            by dragon3x

                            power on.

                            Here are some examples :

                            (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
                            switching supply area).
                            (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
                            than 6.3 V.)

                            1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
                            I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.

                            Panasonic TC-P55ST50 8 blinks then no blinks
                            by Andre Gilbert
                            Hello! yes I know there is already lots of information about this issue. I have a Panasonic TC-P55ST50 that originally displayed an 8-blink error code. Following the troubleshooting flowchart, I ended up replacing the SS board. However, even after replacing it, the issue persists. The TV turns on and stays on without displaying an image, and continuity is confirmed on all connectors. What am I missing here🤔?
                            Ok Im a mechanical engineer ...but I thought I was able to follow a rather simple flowchart for electric troubleshooting 😂.

                            by slybunda
                            hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
                            it has inside:
                            2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
                            2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

                            not heard of these brands are they any good?

                            iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...

                            Recapping Sony ICF-SW55 - verifying cap values
                            by proxneo
                            Dear reader

                            I am performing a repair on a Sony ICF-SW55, which includes recapping (some) of the SMD capacitors on the mainboard. I am looking for verification of their values. At the moment, I'm 95% sure I've got the right values, but it is hard to find some official, credible or multiple independant sources on this.

                            At the moment, I have selected replacements based on the following list of values:

                            3 x 470uF 10VDC
                            3 x 4.7uF 35VDC
                            4 x 47uF 50VDC
                            8 x 22uF 6.3 VDC
                            1 x 220uF 6.3VDC
                            5 x 100uF 6.3VDC
