I'm looking to confirm the type of a capacitor, if it is indeed a capacitor.
This Starcap "battery-cap" thing looks like a button battery but is labeled with what appear to be capacitor values.
It has leaked some crusty stuff out along the edge. I cleaned it up with some rubbing alcohol but some of the crust can still be seen along the edge in the top right of the photo.
It is in a consumer electronics device that has been in use for 9 years.
It is labeled;
Starcap
0.22F (note, not "uF")
5.5v
DC +70C
What is this thing and what might be a good replacement?
