By the way, I have read a few articles that say;
"don't buy expensive capacitors, they won't work any better than cheap ones will."
Is that true? I bought Mallory or JJ capacitors along with these electrolytic ones,
and I have to say that I felt bad putting them in because they looked so cheap!
The ink was coming off some and the paper was pealing on a few just after lightly handling them. I know you don't see the inside once the TV is redone, but It would feel better to me knowing there were at least decent looking caps in there. I bought all these from antique electronics supply.
This is my first time recapping anything, and I'd rather not use these caps again!
