    color for panasonic caps?

    I just order some panny's from digikey and it came today and they are not the normal black.
    Is it normal for panasonic to release FC caps in blue?

    The 330uf on the right are dark blue then the 470uF on the left.

    Yes. FC is blue. I also believe the newer series FR (to replace FM) is white/black.

      Does anyone have pix of the bottom of Panasonic FLs?

      I came across some that had the OST/evercon style bullseye bung. They got changed, since they looked questionable.

          Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
          by momaka
          I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

          For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

          It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

          Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
          by eryjus
          Hello,

          First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

          I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

          I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
          ...

          HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
          by momaka
          Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...
