Electrolytic capacitors in equipment in store
« on: October 18, 2014, 12:32:56 PM »

A bit of "everyone knows" which may not be universal.

Aluminium electrolytic capacitors can deteriorate in storage, so it may be a good idea to power up spare equipment for say 15 minutes every six months or so to heal them.
