Anyone have a good suggestion for a "starter kit" for stocking up on a few common values/sizes of surface mount electrolytic capacitors? Say, 1uF to 220uFs or so. I'm just so mad that I have a pile of through-hole caps that I stock over the years, just no SMT's.
I guess the quality is not a big concern, I'd not be unhappy with a pile of CapXons but rather avoid a pile of Fuhjyyus... but I'm not sure I'm willing to pay for a set of Rubycons.
Perhaps my volume needed is low enough that I should bite the bullet and buy on demand but I hate the wait time, higher chance of having yet another opened, unfinished project sitting on my floor waiting for me to trip over it and permanently destroying it. Actually maybe that would be a good thing.
