    Identifying Cap Manfacture...

    I have a MFJ-4125 25A max Power Supply

    Caps have a M In a Box [M] other then the values 470 200V 85 degree no other markings?

    The other caps are Tocon and have a few have failed in just over a year.

    Since I was at it I figured I would recap the entire PS since I was ordering parts. Since i am in it why not put good caps in it..

    Will try and get a photo when I get back to the PS.

    Under Warranty this PS was sent to MFJ as it would fail at about 16amps I noticed they replaced C22 on the schematic 2200 16V with a 2200 25V same Tocon Brand maybe 22amps max Continuous draw about 20amps and well guess what one was bulged? Should I Increase the Microfarad or is it just the limits of the PS and being over rated by the MFG?

    I like their warranty in the manual.. This warranty is NOT void for owners who attempt to repair defective units. Technical
    consultation is available by calling (601) XXX-XXXX.

      No Just a upper case M sides kind of bulged inside of a square box. One has a UP under the box?

        Yes, that sounds like Panasonic / Matsushita. "UP" is most likely the TS-UP series.

        Let me guess, the cap is black, with white writing? And the top is black plastic as well?

            What electronic component (online) stores are accessible to you? When we know that, we can browse through their catalogs and try to recommend some higher temperature and/or higher ripple substitutes

              I am in the USA so Mouser, Digikey, Jameco, Etc.

              Mouser is who I usually order parts from as they usually have a larger selection.

                What's the maximum diameter and height for those caps?
