Nichicon VX replacement

[Agent24]

Those aren't axial though...

Nichicon's current 105C general purpose series seem to be the UVZ and UVY series.

Thank you

Vishay seems to be the brand with the largest range, Cornell Dubilier also has a decent amount, and Kemet and Epcos have half each of that again.

Which one is the best quality brand from those four? No idea, but I'd trust them over the average Chinese junk.

From what I have seen so far, Axial.

[stj]

do you need axial casings or does the board have holes for radials?
the VX is nothing special, just a 105' temp rating.

Current project is almost all Nichicon VX capacitors (20%) which appear to be discontinued. Any recommendations for a high quality replacement? Thanks
