Where To Buy Capacitors

[knpc]

I need to replace the capacitors on a hydra 240. Does anyone know where I can buy them? Will a different brand aside from rubycon work?
Rubycon ZLH 35v 390uf 105degC
Thanks

I would also check radioshack they may or may not have it depending on how stocked they are.

While you are replacing your present ones, you may want to add a few more. You know, for a little more insurance. Any local electronics store should have them. Personally I would stick with Rubycon if you can get them.

How would i go about adding more? It looks like its a tight space just to solder the 4 back on.

Thanks for the link. I'll check radio shack first, if I don't have any luck I'll order from there.

Twist the leads together, then you solder them to the board. I would add at least 2 more. Any little bit helps.

I highly recommend you to use 35v 1000uf caps, more safer and can handle high ripple current

Yes they do.. but they are HUGE!

Thanks for the help. I'll see what I can find and give it a try.

Yeah they do, but it is much better than the stock one, like I said it can handle high ripple current, i have also hydra 240 and I've install one 35v 2200uf, so far no heat issue at all.

sweeeeeeet.. gotta love the lack of heat...
I cannot install huge caps on my 240... I have it in a VERY tight spot.

[knpc]

Do you have a picture of what it looks like with the 2200 on it. I have plenty of room where my esc is located

[Mel279]

here how I install it on my hydra 240, hope it help

[Mel279]

Its the same function like those ETTI caps module, but if u wanna go for a simple and cheaper, just install it like I do, I even wanna try 4000uf if I can find one, its going to be pretty big

[knpc]

Its hard to see in the picture how its wired. Are there two wires from each side of the cap going to the upper and lower board?
