Maybe very careful surgery of the old cap, stuff the

The Rubycon 35V rated caps must be pretty good :-)

They *are* pretty good aren't they? That surprised me a bit, putting a
decent brand name inside a fake.

Hmm... perhaps the Rubycons are fake too... Is there something else
inside them too?


The Rubycon looks like it was salvaged from a discarded board.
