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.

This electronic component is brand new, old stock.

My original source of this component was a 'pedigree' audio amplifier designer/manufacturer in Australia which has now ceased operations. I say 'pedigree' because all of the various components I am offering are high quality, not el-cheapo Chinese crap!

The component was purchased from Roxby Electronics in Victoria and I see they still have stocks of the PFE RIFA capacitors, which will set you back a "pretty penny" but buy a quantity of these (I want to find new workshops for them!) you can save substantially on the cost.

As this is brand new (but old stock) equipment spare part, I am offering 100% warranty with this product - any issues and a full refund is offered.

PFE capacitors are particularly well suited to audio applications although quite difficult to find these days (at a reasonable price)

Polystyrene film capacitors provide high insulation, low leakage, low dielectric absorption, low distortion and excellent temperature stability.
