buying caps
I'm trying to fix a Gateway pc with bad caps on the MB. I managed to
remove the bad ones ('Chhsi' brand name) and clear the holes. I need (3) 1000uF 6.3v HM(M) and (2) 1500uF 10v WG(M) electrolytic caps. I'd been believing the replacements would cost ~ $1 each. But the local parts supply place has the 1000uF for ~ $2, and they don't have the 1500s. Radio Shack has the 1000uF 35v for $1.69, but they don't carry the 1500s. Can I use a different value in place of the 1500s? Radio Shack does have 2300s. I don't live in or near a large city. Any suggestions? I'd thought that procuring the caps was going to be the one easy part of this project. Btw, can I use axial, if they physically don't interfere with anything? Do I have to worry about any other ratings and/or quality? |
