    Big list of boards I have repaired.........

    ABIT KT7 RAID
    ABIT KT7A RAID
    BIOSTAR M7VQK
    ECS K7SEM
    ECS D6VAA
    AMPTRON K7-810LMR
    MSI 6390L <---my greatest feat...replaced most of the caps and reattached one whole side of the winbond surface mounted chip with just a regular soldering iron.
    Probably others, but that's all i can think of ATM.

    Sorry I don't have a list of the exact caps and locations on each board. I just found this website a few days ago. What I do have is a lot of the bad caps I have replaced. Why I saved them, I have no idea.
    Here they are:
    Ost 6.3v 3300uF
    Choyo 10v 2200uF
    G Luxon 6.3v 2200uF
    G Luxon 6.3v 1500uF
    G Luxon 6.3v 470uF
    G Luxon 6.3v 1000uF
    Lelon 6.3v 1000uF
    Man, if I had a nickle for every cap I've replace, I'd have a couple bucks.

    I wish I had kept a list of all the boards I've recapped....... It'd be a hell of a list! I keep the bad caps in large coffee cans, and when they're full, I pitch them in the dumpster... I tossed 4 full cans last Friday, which makes over 20 cans by now....

        That's why I use the coffee cans with sealable lids... Contains the stink! The aroma is vile when I pop the lid off... BLEHH

              does it matter if they go to landfill on the boards of cheap disposable chinese crap walmart special electronics or loose?

                Well, it's not really a problem with caps like TMS or Chhsi, since most of the electrolyte isn't inside the can anymore anyway.

                  I don`t know if they make trouble in landfills too, but in waste incinerating plants they do mutch harm to the water /steam/heat transfering pipes. They containe some fluoride, wich will be transformed to fluoric acid, wich will corrode even the best stainles stell and those heattesistant ceramics too.
                  This is wat i have learned by a vissite on such a wast power plant.

                      Fluoride salts? Seriously? That would make the electrolyte rather toxic too, well, depending on how much is actually in there.

                      Certainly if hydrofluoric acid is generated to any degree it will dissolve almost anything, including glass... Certainly polymers are usually used to contain it, or indeed fluorine itself if you're really daring.

                        There has to be something we can do with the bad caps........


                        ......i'll have to think on this a bit.

                          Ammunition! I think that was suggested in the firearms thread and I can't get over the idea. Seriously, the bulged tops would be aerodynamic, and there's not much that destroys dignity more than getting shot with a perfectly bulged Fuhjyyu, with its signature tiny leak in the crosshairs... or worse yet, smelly expired-Teapo buckshot.
                          You know there's something wrong when you open up a PSU and are glad to find Teapos.
                          Why I don't buy cheap cases!

                            7. Disposal
                            ( 1 ) Take either of the following methods in disposing of capacitors.
                            a. Make a hole in the capacitor body or crush capacitors and incinerate them.
                            b. If incineration is not applicable, hand them over to a waste disposal agent and have them buried in a landfill.

                              THATS what I'm talkin' 'bout!!!!

                              I've been looking for a reason to buy a shotgun reloading press.


                              hmmmm....then again.....aren't most of the caps about 12.5mm???? Isn't that close to half an inch???? i just so happen to have a pistol that shoot that "caliber". (see my avatar)

                              oooooooo......TC...I need to get my ass over to your place so we can have some fun.
