Just doing some maintenance on a Firma 150 and plan to remove or rebuild the cap pack.
I have never seen caps in such bad shape, quite literally smashed with exposed holes in them. Figured they are dead right?
Wrong, they measure between 440µF and 450µF. (Rated 470µF)
Still probably a "problem" waiting to happen but wow, Rubycon brand, tough caps!
if only Lipo's were built to withstand this sort of thing!
