    Sanyo WG fake

    Aware of the ebay seller: goodbuy711 - ALLPARTSPIPE but I guess that you all know that.

    One is Sanyo WG 6.3V 3300uf.

    The other "sanyo WG 25v 1000uf". from allpartspipe.
    10x23mm.


    Slighty different colour tone. Wierd bottom, X at the top.

      Even good fakes will always have the sleeving pulled too far over the vent.

          Re: Sanyo WG fake

          I just bought some Sanyo WG 3300uF 16v 10mm caps from eBay seller may139188, and they look like they may be fakes. I'd like a little confirmation before I confront the seller about this - can someone take a look at these caps and let me know if they're likely fake?

            Steven - those are most certainly fakes.

              Yup, the + shaped vent gives it away. It should have a K shaped vent. Throw them in a fire and watch them explode.

                  The bung also gives it away, it should have an elaborate bung, not just a flat bottom with some circles (on some of the caps? lol)

                  If you search for my forum name and Sanyo you should be able to find a post where I posted pics of some genuine Sanyos...

                    Thanks for the confirmation. I'll bring this up with the seller and see what he says.

                      The seller I bought from has a return policy, but that'll require return shipping to China. It may end up costing more to ship them back then I'll get refunded. Probably depends on who you bought from. Some of these people probably knowingly sell fakes, so you may not be able to return them for that reason only.

                          more fakes.
                          look at the bung.
                          everyone here with an ebay account needs to report these fakes.the reporting system is a pain in the ass to use.another reason i buy very little off ebay anymore.

                            Don't bother returning things to China, and don't bother ordering them from there in the first place.

                                Replacing Fake Sanyo's in a SMPS
                                by jayjr1105
                                I have a cheap chinese T12 soldering station that I really like and use a lot. It has (clearly) fake Sanyo WG caps (1000uf 35v) on the secondary side that I'd like to replace with authentic caps. What should I use?

                                They are 10mm width but could probably squeeze in 12mm caps and they are super short for a 1000uf 35v cap but I could probably fit 30mm max height.

                                It also has an unpopulated spot so I assume 3 good ones can make up for two. I have some KZE 35v 680uf. Even with three would I be okay on capacitance?...

                                by paparazzo79
                                Hi guys.I bought Macbook Pro mid 2014 15 inch model which did not came with charger.
                                I got new charger but judging by the specs seems it is fake one.Sadly I live in Bosnia and genuine charger is rare to find.
                                what to do?Should I use the fake one?
                                Will it damage the macbook?...

                                by Galraedia
                                I decided to take one of the Rubycon capacitors out of a phat Xbox 360 with a Zephyr motherboard and noticed that all the Rubycon capacitors near the CPU were fake. The capacitors in question are Rubycon MFZ 680uf 6.3V and they all have a bullseye bottom, something not found in genuine Rubycon capacitors. None of them were leaking, they all have the K top, and the system has never been opened before. It appears Microsoft was using fake capacitors in the Xbox 360, or the Chinese facility where the console was manufactured in was using them and passing them off a genuine. Just thought I'd share...

                                Mystery 80s Sanyo cap - perhaps polymer?
                                by cj_reha
                                Hey all I've been working on a 1984 Sanyo 27" color TV which had a smattering of bad caps in the video switching circuit. I found this oddball little 1uF 25V cap which looks to me like an early polymer, but I can't find concrete info proving it. I know Sanyo was a big player in early polymer cap development and this is the time period where they were just getting on the market, so I'm wondering if anyone has crusty old datasheets that could help identify it and determine if my suspicions are right? It has the same epoxy end seal and font/formatting as some old stock Os-Cons I've got laying...

                                Sanyo DP5834 - Gray Screen
                                by toddw65
                                Hey All,

                                I have a Sanyo DP5834 that did have an issue with the backlights, but I disassembled the unit and repaired the LED strips by resoldering all of the connectors. Now I've reassembled it and I have backlights and sound, but a grayish screen. I can tap on the screen and see that it's on, but no picture. All voltages seem to be correct on the power board.

                                Based on the LCD Flat panel TV troubleshooting guide by Bud Martin, I'm thinking the T-Con has failed because I'm getting 12v both into and out of FP1 on the T-Con. Am I on the right track?

                                Thanks,...
