      Should I worry about the drop from 10V to 6.3V??

      6.3V 3300uF, I have no problem with... The sky's the limit with these, there are plenty of these in 10mm.

        No. - It's on either 5v or 3.3v so either works fine.

          Are those big 10V caps on PSUs always either 5V or 3.3V, or are they sometimes really 10V? In other words, is it always safe to replace them with 6.3V? Forgive my ignorance.

            The standard output voltages of an ATX power supply are +12, +5, +3.3, -12v. There aren't any voltages from 6.3v to 10v so there's no need for a 10v capacitor on the output side. There could be 6v-10v on the input side or anywhere in a proprietary power supply.

            If in doubt solder a cap in a measure the voltage. A 6.3v cap will run at 10v long enough to measure it.

              What severach said.
              The rule only applies to the final output caps.
              Voltages between input and final output could be anything so those you'd have to check to be sure.

                I just tested the 350-PN... There are six "big" caps. Two of them were 4.82V, two were 12.9, and two were 3.36, so to answer my own question, none of them were unique to the design. They each just represent a different "rail".

                I'm about to re-cap this with Panasonic FK and FC. The FK has better spec than the Teapo SC, so I'm glad I listened to you and did not use the Samxon RS. Thanks.

                  by Reintar
                  First of all, I'd like to mention that I'm a novice when it comes to laptop repair, although I do have some experience with soldering.
                  One day, my laptop experienced a severe stutter, and after rebooting, it failed to boot into Windows. I decided to disassemble it and found that the PL900 component was blown. Later, I came across a post (https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...error%E2%80%99) with the same problem, where...

                  Replacing electrolytic capacitors
                  by Askic
                  Hello guys,
                  I need an explanation from more experienced guys regarding the replacement of faulty (bumped) caps.

                  I recently oversaw a replacement of faulty caps on two different motherboards. On one motherboard we have 5 faulty caps, 3 x 3300 uF and 2x 1500 uF 6.3 V. I have witnesed that all caps were replaced by 2200 uF 6.3 V and it worked ok.
                  Is there any recommendation about how to proceed if I don't have exact capacitors? Usually it is beeter that replacement capacitor has higher voltage and a bit higher capacity (if same is not available). Is it possible that...

                  Replace electrolytic cap with bipolar one
                  by Adenitz
                  Hello,
                  can I use this cap:
                  https://www.tme.eu/en/details/ues1h4...tors/nichicon/

                  Capacitor: electrolytic; bipolar; THT; 47uF; 50V

                  to replace this capacitor: Electrolytic Radial E 47uF/50V 6.3x11 RM2.5 105°C Jamicon

                  What exactly I can expect to install bipolar electrolytic cap instead a regular one?

                  Thanks.

                  Hi all!

                  I just bought a pair of ADS L810 speakers, which I've heard are some of the best speakers from that time (late 70's) into the early 80's. I was super excited to test them out and hooked them up and I was very underwhelmed by the treble. The treble was awfully muffled. I've been doing some restoration work on 70's stereos and a couple of speakers here and there so I am really just a beginner. I do know that capacitors in speaker crossovers filter out the lows to allow only the highs up to the tweeters and mids. Inductors filter out the highs to allow the lower frequencies to...

                  Dell Optiplex GX260 - Advice Needed for Polymodding Motherboard
                  by SwedishDiesel
                  Howdy folks,

                  I have an Optiplex GX260 that blew a couple of those troublesome Nichicon HM series (ultra low ESR) electrolytic capacitors. Because said caps are obsolete, they are pretty much impossible to find on the market; I did find a listing for some but I believe they are counterfeit. I feel the easiest thing to do would be to replace all the blown caps with polymer ones. I am by no means an expert in electronics, and I've found a fair bit of conflicting information, so any guidance or confirmation would be greatly appreciated. While from a practical standpoint it's not worth...
