LOL I did just that, but luckily @Whitigir and @Nayparm came to the rescue !

My elna 47uf is measuring same as my Audionote, at 50uf...

So the only difference between them is the voltage rating..
Elna at 10v, & "AN" at 16v...
Hmmm.

Edit**
Actually, all the "AN" are reading slightly below their values at 49.6 to 49.8uf, so they are closer to 47 value than the elna, which are all at 50uf.

All of these Electrolytic has 20% tolerances ... won’t surprise me if 47uf measure into 57uF

I calculated my tester accuracy is rated 4% off plus 3point so a variation of 5uf.


Regardless, it looks like the "AN" are a closer fit(!) than the elna...
Dam decisions!

this is true I have noted that the longer I leave the tester on the leads it slowly rises .01 increment, very slowly..(!)
Took about a full 2minute to reach 1uf more...

Has anyone used hotglue yet?

I may put a dap to hold any caps steady.
The problem is it is hard to remove if make mistake.

Has anyone ever used the NFC antenna?

Hand made Pure Silver backplate !!!

 

[Nayparm]

Brilliant, looks ace, pure silver goodness

Thanks to your measured dimensions that I was able to make the 2 side fins. Still not perfect by hands but it works for pure silver lol

I had these options at current supplier. I ordered some balanced covers and some full length covers.
