    Wtf is this?

    I bought 10, 3300uf,6.3v kzj caps from fleabay about a year ago and two of them have no readings with a capacitor meter and they are puffed out like they have been installed the wrong way or something,have you seen this before just from storing them? They were stored in a cool spot the whole time The rest of them seem OK but can they be trusted?.

    I've seen that before with Fuhjyyu a few times. Given how low quality KZG/KZJ are, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they can do it too.
    I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

    No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

        I would discard them all anyway, even if they didn't fail in storage. They are KZJ after all.
