I have a blank display on my Tommy. Did the power readings and I'm off at the 68, 98 and 110 readings.

I'm going to start replacing pieces and I'm in good shape except for locally (Toronto) sourcing the 100uf 200v capacitor or the suggested 150uf 250v substitute.

Sayal tells me they have 100uf 250v caps. Is this a good substitute?

Was wondering if any of our electronic gurus could confirm.

Thanks in advance...

You can always go up in voltage on a cap without any issues, as long as it fits physically. Where it's only a 50V difference you should be fine.
