I was about to embark on another TV rebuild, and I have found that I'm out of 1600v rated capacitors. I don't remember where I got them before, so I've looked around a bit online. AES only seems to have about 10 different values. JustRadios doesn't carry 1600v caps.

So, what's a good place to look that has good prices? Similarly, I need to reorder more regular 600v caps (.047's in particular). I have been buying the little yellow guys from JustRadios, they seem to have good prices. Anyplace else carry a good selection at good prices that I should know of?

Fast, friendly, and good stuff. BTW, I'm not affiliated with them in any manner.

Justradios is a fine place to get caps however he's in Canada so if you do use them pay the extra $2 and get the Air Mail or it could take a while.

Allied Electronics is another source as is Mouser.

Here's a link to justradios price list and they do carry 1600 volt "orange dips". I've bought from them and have always gotten great service.

As far as electrolytics/semiconductors we don't use anyplace other than Mouser...they have the best, fastest service and reasonable prices. They have any value/voltage rating you will need.
We have bought mylar caps from Justradios, and yes they did have 1600v. rated ones.

Just Radios gets my endorsement.
