[20210305] Today an interesting batch of Nichicon capacitors arrived from nl.mouser.com. I needed a replacement cap for the repair of my HP-8116A and decided to start collecting a stock of electrolytic capacitors. I know, I know, shelf life and all… But waiting two weeks in lockdown for a single elco is no fun either…

Today’s batch is (my first) from Nichicon; of course… Temperature rating 105 °C.
