Its a .390uf. Not sure of the voltage...no markings. But it is 5mm spacing and fits in any spot for a normal sized box cap. I bought it at one of the usual vendors, but can't figure out which one.

Any thoughts? Links? I love to get .390uf, .470uf, .220uf, etc in this cap.

I've got 470n and 1u in that same sort of package. I got them at a surplus supplier (can't recall which one, but most likely Electronics Goldmine).

They are not marked by manufacturer, but they look a hell of a lot like Panasonic to me.

Something like this:

It looks a lot like the 50V Cornell Dubilier film caps I get from Mouser.

It looks a lot like the caps from the huge cap group buy many of us took part in ages ago. I remember sorting them for hours.. looked just like that. Now where they came from, I don't remember..

It's a good point, but I can't believe you took the time to snap a pic, upload it, and then start a whole thread about where this $0.24 cap came from. :lol:

BtW - I have one too somehow. Saw it the other day. I was like WTF is this? A .47 I can understand, but a .39?

I agree with CJ, looks like the Panasonics I get from Pedal Parts.
