1Quik7 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I have the house to myself this weekend so I'm thinking of tackling a computer monitor issue and replacing some capacitors in my boredom. I know Radio Shack used to be the store but I haven't stepped foot into one of those in years. If they don't have them are there other local stores that might? I only need 3 sizes and they seem to be pretty common for TVs/Monitors, I can order a kit off Ebay but like I said, I'd like to do it this weekend.

acklac7 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Radio Shack doesn't have much of dick for electronics anymore, they've switched to cell phone sales and whatnot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 EBay is your best bet and going to be the cheapest too. I repair a lot of LCD TV's and always get my caps from EBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPL_Josh Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Partsexpress.com Would be better if you listed the specifics of the capacitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmrmnhrm Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Mouser. Good filter tools to whittle down to exactly the cap(s) you need. Just be sure to buy genuine Jap caps (I prefer Nichicon). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
