Only two search hits here, one casually mentioning lower/middle calibre many many moons ago, not terribly helpful, and the other, simply exposure to it, and neither included the RU suffix. Is this a design worth recapping to keep a 10-15 year old PC operational?
I replaced the obviously bad Ltec LZP 2200uF 16V and the obviously bad pair of CapXon GS 18x40 620uF 200V with Nichicon 22x50 UPT. It lights up my digital PS tester with suitable voltages, but it emits a screechy squeal that just drowns out the two 80mm fans. It probably would only very slightly annoy installed in a PC in a room with anything louder than a refrigerator running. I haven't tried connecting to a motherboard as yet. What I didn't try to replace includes a bunch of Su'scons in various sizes, and 2-3 each Teapo & Ltec. Should I give up? The cabling exit from the case makes it a big chore to refit the cover and get screws installed, and the design generally makes getting and keeping the board in position to check or change components similarly challenging. Will the screech most likely toast a motherboard eventually, keep on working several years of relatively brief on-times, or quickly give up the ghost? TIA
