I have a dearth of 25v caps, and I have a monitor that I _think_ has bad caps (It's a KDS monitor with the Xunda caps).
While I order the right caps to use, does anyone think there'd be a problem with my hooking up 16v caps to the 25 volt to see if the system powers up and stays up?
K917S / 900P
Right now, it just flashes a picture, then it goes blank. I've read that other KDS monitors with similar symptoms had bad caps - these aren't blown.
Right now, it has 6 470uF, 25v, 1cm caps, and 1 220uF, 25v, 8mm cap.
(plus a bunch of 6.3mm caps)
All I have in 25v are 12.5mm, 1000uF caps, and 1cm 330uF caps.
I have plenty of caps in 16v to shoehorn in for testing.
Note: This would NOT be to leave in permanently. This would ONLY be to find out if the unit powers up properly.
