Re: The Recapping FAQ

I have a question: when selecting replacement caps from the Badcaps store, can I use any capacitor as replacement as long as it has the same capacitance and voltage?

For example, let's say that I have a 1200uf 16v KZE... could I use a 1200uf 16v ZLG as replacement?

I'm asking because I'm looking at Digikey and there are some concepts that I'm not familiar with, as ripple current, so I don't know if I should lookup the specs and select a matching replacement.

As long as the replacement has a <0.1 Ohm ESR is it...
