Re: Do bad caps reflect badly on the end product manufacturer?



I didn't know the name or realize it even had a name on it. The capacitor looks very generic, but upon looking at it closely I did see a tiny name. I had to get a magnifying glass to see it.

On the base there is a tiny inscription that says the brand is CapXon - A crappy brand I have come to understand...

However, I'm wondering if this might be an exception and just a case of the manufacturer getting shafted by the capacitor manufacturer.


I bought two flat screen monitors about a year and a half ago. They were a really good deal and have great picture, so I was very happy would them and would have recommended them to anyone or repatronized the manufacture, Sceptre.
