HISTORY:

Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.

 

Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.

If you would like to know more about Ee values, please take a look HERE

 

This electronic component is BRAND NEW, old stock

 

I have been unable to identify the manufacturer, the body of the capacitor has no company logo or markings other than the value and tolerance.

Leads are slightly dull due to oxidisation but still remain perfectly serviceable

 

TESTING:

Because the tolerance is indicated as 5% (J) and this is old stock, I undertook some testing

457pF

My current test equipment is a bit on the "budget side", lacking high accuracy but this test result indicates the capacity is still within a 5% band
