So, has anyone measured the temperature of the capacitors in a tube
type amplifier?

Of course they're not all the same. I want to see if any of them run
anywhere close to 85C or 105C, as claimed. In particular, the big
aluminum can type capacitors that are often misplaced very close to
the tubes. You may actually be correct but I doubt it since aluminum
makes a very good IR reflector. The caps under the chassis are
probably comparatively cool.

While I have a few minutes waiting for the contact cement repairs on
my tennis shoes to dry, I have a mini-rant. Why am I doing your
calculations for you? You proclaim that leakage current is important,
yet I'm expected to do the calculations? You proclaim the temperature
has an effect on ESR, yet I'm expected to calculate how big an effect.
You drag guitar amps, hi-v caps, and internal leakage, into a
discussion on the OP's LCD TV or monitor, which uses low voltage, low
leakage, low-ESR, and apparently low-life capacitors, while I'm
expected to demonstrate the distinction? If you have a point to make,
please do your own calcs.

Go **** you mother - you pathetic, raving, radio ham idiot.

Are you aware that you're breaking Australian law?

If there were a reward, I would probably turn you in to the
authorities.
