Thank you for the information. I’m passing it on to my husband. This is just another example of why we should never have allowed any crucial industry to depend on one source in their supply chain. We are a small contract manufacturer of industrial parts for OEMs. I do not believe that we’ve had any complaints related to this, but we use capacitors like popcorn. I’m not even sure that we make a line item for them in our quotes. I’ll have to ask somebody to check our inventory. Would these little devils “leak” if they are not installed anywhere — just sitting in the bin?

I suppose it’s possible but I think that they had a problem under load. Sometimes they would fail without leaking although usually they looked “puffed out”.
