    Philips 37PFL7603 , Ballast capacitor question

    Hey guys ,

    Got this tv from a friend. Tv did not work anymore and after opening up the tv i noticed that a blue ballast capacitor was blown ( gone! :o )

    I removed the other 1 from the circuit and now the tv is working again but ofcourse this wont work for a long time because its missing those 2 capacitors.

    My question is , can i use a higher KV rating? The original is 22pf/6KV , can i use for example 10KV?
    Whats the best solution because the capacitor was GONE and i dont want that to happen again.....

    Capacitor C330 was gone , other 1 was black. Its now working without those 2 capacitors.

      Yes you can use a 10kv cap.

                  Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition
                  by MORETTIGIAN
                  Title:
                  Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

                  Description:
                  During maintenance on an RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition, I found a capacitor lying on my desk after reassembly.
                  I did not notice it detaching, so I am unsure of its original location on the PCB.

                  Procedure performed:
                  - Removed backplate
                  - Cleaned heatsink and PCB with isopropyl alcohol + soft ESD brush
                  - Reapplied thermal compound
                  - Reassembled card

                  Observed behavior after reassembly:
                  - GPU powers on and operates normally under...

                  RTX 3080 FE Identifying capacitor
                  by Prolog
                  Hi people, I hope this is the correct spot to post this, I'm new to the forum.

                  I have an RTX 3080 Founders Edition which has a burnt up capacitor (it was in parallel with another capacitor which appears damaged too), so I am hoping to be able to identify the capacitor values and order replacements.

                  I hope these photos make it clear which component I am referring to:
                  (yes, the soldering is a bit botched from removing the blown one, I know)

                  I have found the board schematic (attached), but there does not seem to be a boardview available. I have never...

                  Dick Smith Q-1760 linear power supply filter capacitor question
                  by Agent24
                  I have acquired a used Dick Smith Q-1760 power supply - although the OEM is Manson Industrial
                  It has at least one problem.

                  The voltage control potentiometer VR2, 50K is faulty - going high resistance / open circuit in the CCW end and leading to the output voltage jumping around.
                  I have already ordered a replacement potentiometer, so that's not an issue.

                  Now, I want to replace all three electrolytics on the PCB as they are CapXon and I don't trust them so much, I will replace them with something better while I've got the thing apart anyway.
                  All are CapXon...

                  If I replace with inferior capacitor, Is it No harm to other IC components at all?
                  by chth96
                  I replaced some capacitor which is located on optical pickup pcb which is shown in the table below(PCB #2).Because it have been out of order.
                  Now,It works very well,But I just have found that all caps (6svpc100my and other part number as well) ,which is shown in the table below, has ultra-high ripple current spec.
                  It is not able to obtain any capacitor which can be a substitute for this ultra-high ripple current nichicon capacitor.
                  So I replaced it with samxon and rubycon's general capacitor(GP,YXA series).
                  I know that these capacitor will not last as long as nichicon capacitor...
