    LESR Caps in uk

    Luckily never needed to replace capacitors (Rubycon on my mobo) but my PSU has failed. I knew it was going to happen problem getting past system post for about a month. I hardly used my gaming computer hence no urgency. I needid it last night to set up a SQL database and a cap popped. System was still running but shut it down. On inspection of cpu 4x2200uf 10v Jxxxx something comapny caps all leaking along. 2x2200uf 10v slightrly bigger package seem fine but I think should replace anyway one 2200uf 16v also leaking. I would probabaly have got a new PSU but cant afford it at the moment so going to replace the capacitors. It's a easy enough job with a PACE sodr-Xtractor reflow solder on pin and suck it away and cap falls out :-) Where can i get replacment capacitors in the uk ? Ideally relaistic p&p costs aswell not £3 order with £8.99 + vat for shipping. Any of these do ?

    Not being in the uk I can only recommend the obvious
    like you suggested http://rswww.com/
    or otherwise http://www.farnell.com/uk/
    yes you will get screwed on shipping for the small orders. better to get together a mini group buy and split the shipping. otherwise since you are hard up, cant you find a friend who wants caps replaced and then you can cover the costs with your cap replacement services.

    i cant see the link you put but rs has the panasonic fc which are great.

    please observe safety precautions when working on AC powered kit. I am not familiar, please research this.

      RS are fairly pricey. Panasonic being cheaper than then the Rubycon their comes to £14 inc. delivery a new 500w PSU costs £12.95 delivered (7-9 days)

      Anyone know of other suppliers or members in UK with surplus ?
