C38 (under one of the coils) isn't a 22uF 50V as I had assumed, but rather a 1uF 50V. So his list has quantity 2 of the 22uF 50V and mine has quantity 2 of the 1uF 50V, everything else is the same. Very strange... good thing I ordered extras!
    Where is this list?
    That's probably a typo and I should fix it.

      Click the link where it says PCBONEZ's list. Will report back after work today.

          Re: Antec TruePower 2.0 TPII-550

          can you guys assist me with this psu please.. awhile back i replaced all the large caps, not knowing about the low esr factor when choosing caps.. and i replaced the 4700uf and 3300uf caps all with 25v caps.. now, im not sure which caps were the 10v ones or the 16v ones.
          im assuming the two caps next to eachother are the 3300uf 16v caps and the 4 caps next to eachother are the 4700uf 10v caps? im assuming this because the two caps next to eachother are near the 12v rail (yellow) but i want to be sure..

            On 12V rail are usually 16V caps, on other rails 6,3 or 10V caps. Just trace the tracks to the actuall rails.

                Physical location isn't that reliable.
                .
                You can use a DMM [resistance/continuity check] from a yellow +12v wire to the caps to make sure which is which.

                    Just to revive an old thread, anyone knows the value for the R117 resistor located near the high voltage line. Mine was burnt and cannot get any reading and color code faded out.

                      Hello guys, Shane from Australia here. Reviving thread again.

                      I have this power supply & smaller caps are domed.
                      Do wish to keep these old school psu's matched to my 462, 939 boards of that era. So I may ask some questions later, though there is plenty of info in here

                          Thanks buddy....... feel like I'm home now

                          Now I'm struggling on replacing the taller caps.
                          These are x2 3300uF 16v & x4 4700uF 10v dimension 10mm x 35mm.

                          You see my store here RS Online only has the 12.5mm wide.
                          It's the 3300uF though really needed.....assume for 12v rail.

                          Watched this fluctuate in my bios screen hardware tab. 0.3V

                          Now I can ship OK from USA shortly ...... if a store is recommended to me

                            Check my stock.

                            As for 4700, so far I have been replacing them with 3300 as there was nothing better. Now there are 4700/6.3 available, but I'll stock them late this year or early 2018…can only invest so much each year and there is already more than 10000 new pcs on the way or planned.

                              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:

                              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."
                              ...

                              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...

                              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,...

                              Gigabyte GA-6OXT :: caps question
                              by Foetuss
                              Good evening

                              I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
                              Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

                              But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
                              Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...
