I have been playing with LCDs for a while but just picked up 3 Dell SX270s that were on the junk heap at work. They all have blown capacitors in them. I am a little leary of substitution since these are more sensitive. The Rubycon MCZ series 6.3V 2200uF are the ones that are killed in all machines with different variations of others that may be blown. Actually, the others were Nichicon HN(M) series.
So, a couple of questions...
First, Topcat sells kits for the SX270 but do I really need to replace all of them? I can't seem to find MCZ but sometimes (like Topcat) the MBZ is available...is there a difference?
I'm in Canada so there is a Canadian version of Digikey but they don't sell Rubycon...any suggestions for replacements?
I was going to replace both 2200uF 6.3V caps in each, 2 of the 1800uF 16V and a single 1000uF 16V but leave the rest.
