Digikey P/N P10271-ND (220UF 25V)

[Wrog]

Hi all! Just received a shipment today from Digikey for recapping a Gateway FPD2185W, and when I opened the box I got a little surprise! I had ordered a P10271-ND, which is supposed to be a Panasonic FC 220UF 25V radial cap, but instead I received the attached. Did I order the wrong part, or did someone at Digikey make a mistake? It doesn't even look close...

The label is right, the part is wrong. Someone screwed up on their end.

Should have just ordered some of these and called it a day....

Oh bugger! I didn't know that parts were sold here. I will certainly keep that in mind next time, and thanks for the confirmation!

Send digikey customer support an email saying there was an error in the shipment, and they'll send you the correct thing pronto. I've had two separate errors (broken LED array, package of 5 resistors only had 4) and they sent me new stuff out the same day I told them about it. They won't even make you send the resistors back!

Why can't 1 ohm precision resistors be used in place of 220uF capacitors?

Digikey was excellent to deal with, they are sending the proper parts at no charge. Does anyone want a couple 1 Ohm axial resistors? hah

They just screwed up part of my order a few weeks back I ordered 2 150uf 450V Panasonic caps.

They sent me a Tyco automotive connector. Doesn't look anything like a cap .

Third "picking error" I've had from them since my first order in 05. They may have fancy automated packing equipment but that means nothing when the guy packing the bags screws up.
