Hi Dude

I received my capacitors today. Can you tell me though, why on the datasheet, these caps have a 15mm minimum length and 19mm length leads. Where as on these, they are both only 5mm long leads?

Some measurements I have taken with my meter below.

4900uf esr .06 ohm vloss 1.2%
5135uf esr .09 ohm vloss .9%
5114uf esr .13 vloss .9%
4900uf esr .09 1.2%

Really? I never noticed that. :eek:

My best bet is that it should say 5mm and 19mm. :D

I had 10 or more boxes (purchased directly from the US distributor) from an abandoned project and sold the ones I did not need here and on eBay. You are the first one to point that out...

Do you need longer leads? Even though the caps I sent you match the picture I posted in the beginning of this thread, I would be glad to refund your purchase in case it does not fit your use.

Please let me know and sorry for any inconvenience.

They might have been specially ordered with short leads ready for soldering by a manufacturer, who didn't finally purchase them.

Maybe... :scratch1:

I know we purchased several boxes for PCB mounting (for a "special audio project"), but as far as I can remember that was not a "special order". :rolleyes:
That was back in 2011, so I may have forgotten some details about it.

Indeed the datasheet and the photos I took for the capacitors I am selling do not match. :censored:

I got your message and will refund your purchase as requested.

Please return the caps to the address on the USPS label.
If you no longer have it, please let me know.

Once again, sorry for any inconvenience.

Cheers!
