W2AEW's video - ESR - Capxon cap

Few days ago I spent one full hour using the knowledge acquired in this video


I checked a big bunch of caps, and, when coming to those collected after disassembling uncountable boards, there was one branded Capxon, sporting the highest ESR in this session: almost 6 ohms. Sure I heard of than brand before...!

Let's say that one third of my caps were discarded and I feel better.

Back to current sources now.

I think that I have seen that video before.
It is a good demonstartion and well explained.
Thank you for posting it.

Hasta luego

Hola Jim,

I am not a fan of videos for learning things, but this particular EE, Alan Wolke, has a long series of good ones. I run across of one that I watched and because of the good quality, made me to look for the list in Youtube.

I commend theirs because they are short and to the point, starting with the basics, well explained theory, followed with a practical demonstration. An additional important point for a non-native: I understand 99% of his English.

Good to see sometimes one of those 4-chanel Tektronix scopes in action.

I've watched probably around 50++ videos and consider it time well spent.

See you.
