Some one else pointed this picture to me.
And I will share it with all of you.  :)



If you do not have a good DMM that reads 10.000mF or more, do not delay about getting one.

slburris:
I've seen this picture before.  And each time I see it, I think, why
would you use a high quality Rubycon capacitor in a fake capacitor?
Why not use some other no-name cap?

Unless the Rubycon capacitor itself is a fake and there's a smaller
capacitor inside of it....

That's sounded funny,  but if you are correct, the one who did that, he must be some one who has lots of hate about electronics. LOL
