I was hoping to finish a project this weekend but realized I didn't order enough of one of the parts. Anybody happen to have a 33uF, 16V (or greater) electrolytic capacitor they would be willing to part with? I'd be happy to give you a couple bucks for the trouble. This is for a recap job so I'd prefer something mfg in the last 5 years. I'm in DC but I'd be willing to drive pretty far to get this thing done! Unfortunately radioshack doesn't carry this size (shocker). I called a few local repair shops but none of them had one either.

Thanks!

These are new Nichicon Cerafine caps with a great rep for audio applications.

That's the good news -- the bad news is that I live in Baltimore County off the northeast corner of Baltimore City.

I have a C meter so we can test for values although I expect that there is plenty of wiggle room in terms of the value needed.

Thanks so much. I actually have a 22 ufd and a 10 ufd myself; I think I'll just do what you recommend to get this thing done. Thanks for being willing!

I have new 33uf at 16V Nichicons. How many do you need? I'll just put them in an envelope to you. They are small.
