I decided to replace the old Psu caps in my 400A.
My choice is on Epcos or Rifa both 22000uF, 100V, 85 °C.
Someone have had experience with these capacitors? What do you think is the best on 400A? The price is virtually identical. Thanks for any advice.

with any of these , you can't do wrong
Au contraire Zen Mod, he could go wrong. If he puts his finger on a charged cap he could get zapped pretty bad!😀

Thanks MEGA-amp, I didn't get the finger joke at first. 😕
My problem is that the old caps are Sprague 11000uF 75V 64x118mm and I was looking for a drop-in replacement. The Epcos and Rifa cited don't fit, and the ones that fit don't come close to the specs. Any idea where a newbie can find an acceptable replacement that doesn't require major alterations?

Geez, what's up with these caps? I had to sign a government "End User Certification" to be permitted to buy them, and they're even RoHS compliant. As a firmware engineer I'm used to surface-mount caps the size of a grain of rice, not these beer-can sized ones. 😉
