    Re: caps question

    I USE PANASONIC FM or FR series from DIGIKEY, just check the dimension of the caps and get one that will fit into the board. I would at least replace ALL of them in the secondary side, bad caps can look normal.

          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...

          Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
          by momaka
          I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

          For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

          It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

          Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
          by Paxman_Swede
          Hello!

          I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

          The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

          I have studied the board and...

          Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
          by eryjus
          Hello,

          First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

          I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

          I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
