I have an untested DK Jr. p/s brick that I will test before using, but.. Does anyone bother to re-cap the PCBs inside, to prolong the life? Is this a waste? Any tips? Looks like quite a few caps in there.

Thanks-

I've recapped a PP7A and a PP7B. I blew the 24 volt on a PP7B testing voltages when my probe slipped. I don't think too many people reacap power supplies as they do monitors but I'm sure it won't hurt.

I ordered 2 more "capkits" for PP7B's to redo a couple I have. Stable voltage is a good thing - Barry
