Hi guys, I had a quick question for you all. I mainly collect early Philco consoles 1928-1934 and have always had one questions when I am ordering electrolytics for these old sets.
Can anybody tell me the general ball park of what voltage rating electrolytics were on these early consoles, mainly I am ordering parts for a 15X, 76, 86 Neutrodyne, and 80 Jr. Cathedral.
Is 500v safe, I am trying to get as close to the original mF value, I would rather have voltage higher than what is prescribed. Some of the values I find for sale don't go up to 630V, rather 500v or 400v for certin mF values that I am looking for.
Thanks
Jon
