Re: Need a good inexpensive 10000uf/63v cap

Choose 105 degrees versions, they last longer.
You can reform the new caps before use by using a say, 10K resistor to charge it up to the maximum rating of the caps, the higher the resistance the better.

There are many people in this forum who tell you it is unnecessary and even that it is snake oil. They are right it should not be necessary in theory. But it works ! Just ignore them because they have not tried this it.

These are the two definite ways of getting good and cheap electrolytic caps.
