Hi I am looking for the best source for the Large Capacitors on a Twilight
Zone power driver board.I know Williams(Bally)used these same style board in
several games of that era.So I would think there should be some place that
carries these large capacitors for a fair price.The size of the Caps I am
looking for are 25 Volts and 15000 UF.I have found a few places that have 25
volts but not high enough to be 15000 UF.I also would like to find some caps
that are near or exactly the same size and not come up with some that are
like 6 inches tall.The ones in the game are about the size of a 50 cent
piece around and near two inches tall.Probally a little shorter than two
inches.Anyone who deals with these game will know exactly what part I am
talking about.Any help would be appreciated.Please post here or email me at
tripod@cswnet.com Thanks Dave

www. bayareaamusements.com $1.75/each - better than original
specifications, high quality manufacturer.

Looks to me like the caps are $4 on your site, Rick. You must've confused
them with the bridge rectifiers @ $1.75

I think I might have saved a nickle on my last bunch off your price through
Mouser, but I'd rather buy them from you in the future and pay a nickle
more!

Rick's got pretty good prices.

The ones he has on his website look to be United Chemi-Con caps -- 15000uF /
35V caps. At $4 each - that's quite abit less than Mouser (part nuimber
SMH35VN153M35X35T2).

Thanks for the refernce, Del!

Unfortunately, I'm currently sold out of the cap's he's looking for.
I normally carry Cornell Dubilier 380LX series caps at $4 each.

and if you buy 350 of them you will be a silver level customer and win the
respect of the Bay Area Amusement Staff..... Woo Hoo....

Can vouch for Rick, I seem to be paying my mortgage to him lately.....

Ricks $4 caps are also a great replacement for Bally solendoid
driver/voltage regulator boards.

I found the invoice, I bought them from Digikey, not Mouser. P/N is
P6577-ND, paid around $3.99 for them

If Rick's for $4 are better caps, even a better reason to buy from him
next time!

Digikey gets these under 3 bucks apiece if you buy 50 of them, though!
At 5 per power driver, it wouldn't take long!
