Philco 53-1350 Resistor Overheats
#25

dont go hunting down a single container that holds several cap's,, its a huge waste of time.

if you want it to stay looking like it was back then, you would gut the old container and stuff inside new modern caps then seal and wire it in.

there is an advantage to getting the caps separated.

in your oem design, if one cap were to go south, its failure will / could cause the other caps within the same container to fail as well.

my hallicrafters had a yellow cardboard aerovox 60/40/40/25 uf caps of different voltages all in one. Yeah, i tossed that idea in the trash can

Thankyou for the kind words sir. I double checked it with my component tester and it read 2.7 ohms at .02mH.Stormlord5500 — 08:14 AM
