From what I see in the CapacitorWorld catalog pages, they do not provide any lead pitch/spacing or dimensions of the caps; that could be a problem when getting the right size for PCB replacements with real estate considerations; not so much concern when doing replacements on vintage point-to-point wired chassis's. Also, are all the electrolytics truly 105 deg C rated, or is it just a "stock" description they use? I also think these guys deal with mfg's surplus and/or old date code items. Looking at Dwight's review/thread, there is no way to make a quality judgement statement about a cap saying it "passed" a 48hr or even 2 week burn in time (IMHO). Most inferior/aged caps fail in the hundreds to a few thousand hours due to age, high temperatures, poor quality electrolyte and/or dry-out, or running too close to rated voltage.
My 2 cents worth,
