    "TC:" Brand Electrolytics - Any Good?

    Has anyone tried these? ...Here's a typical example. I'd appreciate any feedback - good or bad - from anyone who has actually used them.

    Thanks

    I'm pretty sure that's not "Topcat" brand.

    Usual chinese junk... I'd skip it for anything serious or long term. For small projects the miniscule cost savings isn't worth the horrible quality, IMHO.

        If you just want standard capacitors, there are better, known brands, like Cornell-Dubilier, KEMET, Vishay etc. You can get them through decent distributors like Digi-Key.

        But if you're talking about high temperature/high power environments like SMPS, motherboard etc, then it's advisable to stay with the Japanese brands.
