Mouser Cap Lists
SirPeale:
Brand can have a lot to do with it. I personally like the Xicon caps. Functionally they're pretty similar. I like to get caps all of one manufacturer if I can, makes it easier to eyeball and see what's been changed and what has not.

A recent ordering spree at MOUSER has discovered disturbing news. All XICON capacitors starting with the part numbers 140-htrl are scheduled to be discontinued by the manufacturer. The above lists that contain these parts will have to be updated with the new replacement brand and part numbers.

I can't believe I forgot to post about that! Disturbing news indeed. The caps are being replaced with another brand (which one I forget) and that brand doesn't get good ratings at all on badcaps.net. But then again, Xicons got that kind of rap too, and I've never had an issue with them.

The new brand is LELON and they are inheriting the MOUSER manufacturer part number prefix of 140- that used to belong to XICON.
SirPeale:
Updated the G07 kit to use Nichicon caps instead of Xicon. Note that this contains the main B+ filter cap. If you don't need it, just remove it from your order.
I /think/ I got all the caps. If I missed one, please let me know.
