    Question - What ESR is good for LCD Inverters?

    I have a combo power supply/inverter board out of a Viewsonic VA721 LCD screen with a slew of blown electrolytics on it. (I'll detail the damage in the 'other devices section.)

    It's a standard size component layout and not any kind of micro/miniature stuff going on.

    ~~~~~~~~~

    The question:
    I have no idea what ESR range caps are needed on one of these.

    ~~~~~~~~~

    If it helps answer the question:
    The 'stock' caps are all 'Elite' brand of models:
    EB(M) - 4 of 5 on Inverter side are bad, 2 on PS side 'appear' okay
    PW(M) - 'appear' okay
    PF(M) - 'appear' okay
    Some I can't see the model #'s on yet...

    They are all "Elite" brand so I'm just going to replace them all.
    Just wanna know what ESR I need so if I can use standard caps I can just pick up some at rack-shack or Fries and not wait around on mail ordered parts.

      I use whatever i have around, i think it must not be the edge of lowest esr capacitors.
      In most cases Panasonic FM, Rubycon ZL or Nichicon PS / PM are my choice due to availiability.
      So i would say take any low esr cap from any of the reputable brands you could source.
