Hi everybody. I inherited about 300 capacitors when i moved into a new house and they're all color coded therefore nearly useless 2 me. I used this calculator on a site to tell me the value of a capacitor, but I think something is not matching up. Here's the color code for one capacitor, could someone kindly tel me wut it is?:
Top: Orange
Middle: Red
Botom: Yellow
Very bottom (underneath the cap): Black
On the side, runs about halfway down the capacitor: A line of green
These capacitors are from back in the day, the 70's i think. Are they still good? Some of them have a little rust on them, but overall they're in pretty good condition.
also could someone tell me what kind they are? I think they're tantalum.
thank you very much
