Re: Chengx
You've got your ChengX, ChongX, ChangX capacitors, and the counterfeits. The chinese have a shell-game with companies so you never really know who is who, or if they are a state-owned enterprise, or if they are part of the "group".
I believe one branch of the group/counterfeit company is established in order to scam and rip off customers.
i.e. Capxon International Electronic Company Ltd, incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability. Privatized, got the boot off the hong kong exchange de-listed HKEX 2020/10/27 $0.60/share due to fake financials, never mind the quality was garbage. I think that is a different company from the "real" CapXon in Taiwan, as Taiwan can make good capacitors?
The chinese can make an OK capacitor - but you can't tell due to vague "no-model name" labels and the scam of swapping in cheap (short-lifetime) parts during contract manufacturing for Western companies, to make a few pennies.
Chengxing Electronic Co. "CX" meh I would not say is any good. -
Re: Chengx
DECON sounds like something you use for killing rats, not in power supplies, lest it kills them too.Comment

Re: Chengx
Why should they give more capacitance than required?
Electrolytic's spec is ±20% so right away- most of them right out of the box are low in value nowadays.
470uF -20% would be 376uF. Still disappointing for a new part.
I see the ChengX, ChongX, ChangX etc. many of them offer really cheap versions, even in 16 different colours to look fancy. They seem to have better quality ones but companies are using the cheap, short lifetime versions.Comment

Hello everyone,
I need step-by-step guidance for an issue I’m facing. I’m a technician, and I have several Microsoft Surface Laptop 4 and Surface Laptop 5 devices that were MDM-locked through Autopilot.
There is no BIOS password, and I successfully removed the Autopilot lock using PowerShell. The laptops now work fine, but the BIOS still shows “Managed by: ABC Company” under the Management section.
I would like to know how to remove this management information from the BIOS without changing the serial number. I’ve searched a lot but couldn’t find any...11-02-2025, 09:24 AM -
I am buying a used MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. All photos are attached. Is it a scam?... -
I’m working on re-capping the power board caps on a Klipsch The Fives audio speaker system. I can’t locate a replacement for these original caps that are labeled “Decon SH PET”. I have three of these on the board with the electrolytics. They are supposed to be a film type capacitor, but they look like a radial mount electrolytic. Everything I find they look completely different, usually a square type body. The two values I need are 16V 470uF and 35V 47uF. I’ve got all the other caps in my cart already from Mouser, so if there’s a replacement there, I would prefer to order from... -
Been getting pretty tired of searching for and contacting PCB repair companies online. Filling out the company's Quote Request forms, explaining the problem, attaching photos then sending them out and hearing nothing back. Have done this at least 5 or 6 times and not one quote. Why is this? Don't these companies need or want the work? If anyone knows of a company that will do what they say, as in, supply a quote for a PCB repair. Or at least respond to me. Please let me know their name and contact information. I will be tremendously grateful. Thanks
