Large caps

Stuart Easson · 14th January 2009, 02:32 AM

After returning to the task of cleaning the attic, an unexpected find which may be good for anyone that needs big can caps, I found a case of these:

Nippon Chemicon U32D series, 68000uF/50v, 105c

ESR is 6mOhm, 30A ripple, ~2.5" dia x ~4" tall, ~1lb each

I'm selling them in pairs, I don't have clamps, but I do have the screws and anti-shake washers.

I'm asking $25 for 2, $45 for 4, $80 for 8. We should negotiate if anyone wants more than 8...

Email me if you want the datasheet.

Shipping at cost, to any reasonable place. Shipping cost will of course depend on how many, how fast etc. I'm happy to ship via any normal means (USPS, fedex, UPS etc). If you want insurance beyond the default you pay for it, if you don't want it you accept the possible risk. I'll accept any means of payment, but nothing will leave until payment has cleared my account, I prefer Paypal.

I hate storing these things, if you think my prices are unreasonable call me on it. I chose based on looking at mouser and digikey, where the caps are $30-40 each.

You're killing me here! I want some but I've been burning up too much cash on this stuff lately.
I've used up most of the other caps I bought from you last year - excellent deal and perfect condition. In a few weeks my conscience will clear enough to take a few - how many do you have?

BTW, I think that's a great price.

I found a complete case of 36. Given I didn't know I had this one, there may be more, but for now just the 36...

I'm glad the price seems OK, I worry about this sort of thing...

For those in the US, someone kindly pointed out that the USPS offers a flat rate box (FRB1) which can probably fit ~10 of these with packing and only costs $10.35 for shipping.

Will you lower the $.

Stuart - I am about to start building some F1->F5 amplifiers - do you know if these would be suitable for the psu boards done by Peter Daniels?

Stuart Easson · 26th January 2009, 06:48 PM

...within reason.

As I mentioned in my original post, if you wish to negotiate, email me, I really don't want to keep storing these. I am unwilling to undercut myself in a public forum where every person will simply chime in demanding lower prices.
