610b replacing Electrolytics after 20years
#2

First of, 630ufd - did you mean "Volts"?

I habitually use 11uF in place of 8uF. With no ill effects. I serialize two 22uF Panasonic electrolytics to achbieve this. Each of them is 450V, so it becomes 900V WV cap.

Speaking of. If you used Hi-ripple Panasonics, and not Atoms your electrolytic cap would likely outlive you.
But fim is good.

PS. todays caps tolerance is 20% meaning when you think you have 10uF, you might have 8uF or 12uF. Which means any half-decently made schematic should allow for a standard tolerance. Which means, your 9.4uF should not cause issues.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
