Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in
about a 25% decrease over 1000 hours - so me using 4x 330uF would still have it above the nominal amount of the original.
The original last 3 years, if I get another 2 now it will be time for a new laptop anyway....

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in
Thanks all.
The OE907 is removed, now waiting for some Caps to arrive from RScomponents - Capacitor,tantalum,SMT,T520,case V,10%,2.5Vdc,ESR0.009, 330uF.
So I will end up with about 2.5v 1300uF ESR 0.002 - pretty close to the original in V and ESR (original is 0.0015) but with 400uF higher cap.
rievax, shouldn't you be trying to have 1200uF total seeing OE128 is that value - you have 800uF (not sure of esr of the caps you have)?Leave a comment:

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in
Another question regarding the oe907. People here are saying dont replace it with the same just use single 330uF caps. Why is that? Why wouldn't Toshiba had done the same, originally, if it is a better choice?
I can see the singles would be easier to solder back rather than the eo907.
Just wondering?Leave a comment:

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here
Hi from the Gold Coast, Australia, everyone.
After much searching for a problem with my laptop (Toshiba A300) and visiting many sites that seemed to be talking nonsense I have come across BadCaps and straight away knew what the real problem was.
Now the hard part of actually removing the bad cap.
Cheers to the site and thanks to the members that contribute to it.Leave a comment:

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in
How long did it take to pry off? I know this would be an ideal way of removing a component but I do not have the equipment to remove such a thing properly. Any other details to help remove it.
Also 8 x 100 , that is a heap less than the original - so it still works fine?...Leave a comment:
