I'm trying to figure out what is the difference in these caps, the only difference that I can find is one is 8mm 79R3102  and the other is 8mm 79R3101 however I have no clue what that difference actually means

Mouser has the same cap listed 4 times (difference here is bulk vs cut reel but can still order 1 from both ?)

Just want to make sure I'm ordering the correct ones

Thanks

Rtfm.
C'mon he is posting in the beginners section a bit more politeness would suit you.

Rtfm. 1KX suffix stands for 2000hr lifetime, and ASQKX suffix stands for 5000hr lifetime. Yes, lower rates part can be more expensive due to lower production volume. Unless you are supporting old designs with requirement of using exact same part numbers, just go with the better and cheaper one.

Darnell can list incorrect data, and it happens all the time. Always double check with datasheet.

Thanks much easier to spot it in the manual when somebody mentions it  :-+
