I've been keeping old electronic devices from the early 90's and 2000's example snes console, ps2 slim and crt tvs will these devices have problems with aluminum electrolytic capacitors if stored for a long time?
Hee, hee, so those lines inscribed on the top are a "pressure vent"? I thought the pressure vent was the rubber part on the bottom, which is designed so when it blows, all that corrosive juice gets sprayed onto the PCB, and into the other components!
I have a question about using electrolytic capacitors in power supplies. Is there any way of knowing if you should use polarized or non polarized ? Or do you just try it and if it doesn't work change it ?
Hi Mr Dave Jones I would like to see you make a video on how to solder film capacitors like polypropylene as film can melt with heat I looking forward to solder thru hole polypropylene but scared about it's melting point
And Dave knows (see his Tektronix 2245B refurb video) that you have to install them in the right direction!. Electrolytics do explode – Dave just about jumped through the ceiling… Just given you a little bit of the business, Dave. Super helpful video, Dave. Thanks.
The best part about electrolytic and tantalum capacitors is blowing them up. Now if you want to turn them into firecrackers, you have to be careful, but it can be fun !!!! 😁😁😁
Any chance we could get reissue of episode 33? Your production quality has improved dramatically since this was published, great work Dave, you are such an inspiration!
Is there any reason to use an SMD 1uF Tantalum cap over a ceramic? The datasheet for the part I'm using calls out a Tantalum, but i believe it's just due to ceramic capacitors historically not being able to generate higher capacitances. These days you can get 100uF, even 500uF ceramic capacitors.
Electrolytic capacitors mounted on electronic circuits of devices manufactured after 1990 can remain unused for as long as possible without this disuse causing failures and depolarization in the electrolytic capacitors?
i have electrolytic capacitors mounted on electronic devices from 1990, how long can these devices remain unused and without the electrolytic capacitors failing due to disuse?
It is the best, shortest ans practical explanation I have ever seen. Great work Dave with this video.

you can use them as a paper capacitor even after electrolytes goes off but with low capacitance
Holy crap, I thought it was DATA from Star Trek for a moment…LOLOL

This guy is brilliant and knowledgeable.
In glorious low-def.

alternative title: Roasting Electrolytic Caps for 6 minutes
I've never had anyone shake a capacitor at me for 10 minutes straight😅 and yes I know I'm 12 years late on this video
Drop the emotion and drama please.
my general impression of this video is that capacitors are dangerous and can explode and that generally everything is evil

Hey hey hey I'm electrolytic capacitor stop talking shit about me
Amazing intro!
he's not aged in a decade what
Dave is Steve Irwin of electronics — he is genuinely excited by all these little circuit-populating critters! Love the channel.
That was excellent.

This is excellent. Helping me navigate components.Thankyou mate. New subscriber.
No ceramic caps:(
first rate, david.
You tube is 11 years old
I don't know if it's just me, but you sure scared me to use ANY capacitor. lol.
