Capacitor Quality

OK, thanks. I will buy new capacitors then.

Just to confirm what wraper have said. Samxon and Capxon capacitors have come a long way from the older issues discussed earlier in this thread - they are not top quality, but don't fare bad on a comparison. As anecdotal evidence, I recently disassembled three 11-12 year old LCD screens (Viewsonic and Samsung) with Capxon and Samxon that just recently have developed issues due to their leaking capacitors on the low voltage side of the switching power supply (the large tank capacitors are still absolutely fine). The monitors were used about 8-10 hours per day during these years. I call this quite a decent endurance.
