Re: Blinking power light fix for DVP642 DVD Player
Sorry, but this is simply not true. Any well branded low ESR capacitor will outlast your GP capacitors by ages.
Only the cheapo low esr capacitors have this problem.
I know many devices like CRT TV sets etc. which are using 105°c GP capacitors in a SMPS.
But sure, non of these devices last anything longer then 2 to 5 years.
Personally, i do not use anything else than low ESR capacitor in SMPS powered appliances, even if it cost an arm and a leg.
I don`t want to fix any of my devices more then once.
If your happy with using GP capacitors, no problem it`s your choice.
