Hi all,

We all know what brands of capacitors are bad and which are good.

But is there any "go to" way of finding out what capacitors are in a product without having to take it apart and look ourselves?

Owners manuals are practically useless. Even service/repair manuals obtained from the manufacturer usually only tell the capacitor specs, but not the brand. Rarely does a manufacturer advertise using a particular brand of caps in their products.

Are there readily available parts list for electronics that I am missing?
