Most electrolytic caps today are rated with a tolerance of +/- 20% as opposed to +80/-20% of old. 47uf for a 50uf is what we always went with, and the 105 degree caps add a safety/operation margin.

just my $.02.

I think you mean this one here

It's 99 cent.. The other that's 85 Cents is rated 85 degree maximum..

Most of the electrolytic caps in my cart at mouser are the Nichicon PW series and ones that aren't are either Panasonic or a Nichicon that's rated for 105 degree temps..


That's funny how Bill mentions that Sprague part number that links to the same side mount cap that I listed above.. It would work, but would have to mount it a funky way..
