Do electrolytic capacitors blow up when old?
Electrolytic capacitors sometimes blow up -- due to heat, old age, or lack
of use(?). I have some old studio flashes used for photography and they contain some high voltage electrolytic capacitors. I use them once in a long while. But if they ever blow up, it would be very unpleasant. Could someone reassure me that it is not going to happen, or suggest a solution? |
