    Anything here worth salavaging?

    So I'm about to dump this Sanyo DSR-3709 video recorder which isn't worth much and is probably faulty. I only paid a couple of quid for it and only for the 2 x hard drives in it.

    Anyhow was wondering if anything in it is worth salvaging aside from the hard drives. Looks to have some decent caps in it especially in the power supply side?

    Rubycon ZL caps and a large cap, theres some switches / leds etc. Worth pulling out?

      keep the rotary encoder and buttons.
      keep all of it infact.

      stuff i would keep is the entire psu, the buttons, the rotary encoder, any ram,flash,eeproms or cpu's
      and any surface-mount tantalum caps.
      specially the tantalum caps.

          Which ones are tantalum caps?

          I was thinking just the psu and the two brown boards.

              tantalum are rectangular and black or yellow.

                  Since the power supply is small, I suggest keeping it intact. It is good to learn how a SMPS works and you can easily make measurements for learning purposes.

                      cracked tantalum cap on a video card. safe to apply power without fireworks?
                      by ChaosLegionnaire
                      please refer to the attached pics. is it safe to apply power with that tantalum cap like that without causing fireworks? i dont wanna burn a hole through the pcb as the gpu chip is on the other side.

                      happened to me once before with a shorted mlcc. shorted mlcc on a vrm power phase burned a hole through the pcb power section but thankfully that was nowhere near the gpu chip. but the video card still ended up in the landfill anyway tho as the burn-through was not fixable.

                      so do let me know what u think of the chipped tantalum there. thanks....

                      Help Identifying a Tantalum Capactior!!!!! 68 C79 Please help!!
                      by jrutla2
                      Hello BadCaps Forum! I'm new to the group and hope you guys can help me with something. I have a 2017 Apple imac A1419 board # 820-00609-A that i'm trying to identify a capacitor failure on. The capacitor is a tantalum 68 C79. See pic attached. I've tried to figure this out using the web and unfortunately can't find the information. Can someone tell me what the Capacitance value, voltage, etc is for these 68 C79 caps are? Where could i pick up a replacement? Thanks in advance!!...

                      Capacitance and voltage of tantalum?
                      by Antonynl
                      I have a tantalum capacitors with indicators EB 21 that measures only 22pF. See attached picture.

                      Since this is a windmeter that is normally in a very high mast I would like to get the correct replacement capacitor.

                      Is there somebody that can tell me what the capacitance and voltage of this capacitor are?

                      I don't feel confident that I can figure this out myself after searching around

                      Cheers!!

                      Tantalum Capacitors and Heat Sensitivity
                      by Perry Babin
                      I remember reading somewhere, years back, that tantalum capacitors are sensitive to heating on their negative terminals and using more than a minimal amount of heat could result in damage. Is this/was this ever true?

                      Samsung QE55Q65B with shorted D001 diodes on panel board: Worth saving or not
                      by madyoyo
                      Hi

                      I have a Samsung QE55Q65B with a seemingly common problem: it turn off and back on after a few seconds, (sometimes more, and in rare instances works for hours). D001 on the left side of the panel is very hot. I may be able to remove it with a very fine iron, but i don't have the equipment to re-solder such small parts.

                      Is there a risk to run the tv without this diodes diodes? And is it worth to pay someone else to replace it. I read many people who ended up with bad lines after trying to remove/replace them, , or the panel failing in another way, so i want to weight...
