      I just found a Gigabyte that appears to have Sanyo/Suncon for less!

        Yup. The Gigabyte ultra durables always use Japanese polies (Either OS-CON, Nichicon LF, or Chemi-Con).
        I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

          i think most biostar boards use Su'SCON POLYMERS which seem to be decent caps, Iam running all suscon in my AMD PHENOM X6 system it runs great, I even have programable LED fans that say Su'Scon

            Su'scon are total junk. They may have that cute capacitor guy on their website, but they still make junk caps.

              i see more and more companies using Su'scon polymers, haven't seen any of them fail, only other time ive seen their lytics fail were in monitors, when which plenty of samxon caps have failed in thouse too.

                In all likelihood, they were GF or GL series, which are also known junk, so that means nothing. Their polies might be OK, but I still don't trust them as much as OS-Con.

                  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).

                  https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3591772

                  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."
                  ...

                  Casing Power MPT-301 [PCB ATX9806b-p REV: A3]
                  by momaka
                  This one should make @Pentium4 smile (if he is still reading BCN forums) – I got a new old stock / open box Casing Power MPT-301 PSU on eBay for $4 total.


                  Yes, it’s a very generic-looking box, but the manufacturer isn’t (at least not back in the days), which is…

                  Macron Power Technology Co. LTD.

                  Let’s look at the PSU itself.



                  The shell/case also appears quite generic, like many “sold-with-the-PC-case” units. However, the shell is well-formed and has decent steel thickness. In terms of...

                  Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
                  by Paxman_Swede
                  Hello!

                  I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

                  The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

                  I have studied the board and...

                  Help with switching power supply caps
                  by captain150
                  I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                  I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...
