The Sanyo in my VL setup has been working fine for years. It did seem kind of dim, but the picture was good. I recently installed a switcher because my Special Forces did not want to boot. Shortly after that, I could not get it to hold vertical sync. I am glad it made it beyond my holiday party. I could have sworn that I put a cap kit in it. I did not. It did have a cap kit that was done many years ago that either did not replace all of the parts or used low-quality caps. I have done my cap kit, but I have not given it the smoke test yet. I did test all of the caps with my Sencore LC102. All but one of the Nichicon caps were nominal. One was 15% under. The off-brand caps were a different story. 4 were nominal, 4 were under and 4 were bad.
