There's a heck of a lot more than 500 caps in this thing and tons of them are the smaller values that I didn't have much stock on except for a few select values. They're all name brand, only a few have pre-formed leads - most are full length and not on tape as the picture indicates.

Lots of values like 22 uF 16V, largest I've found so far ar 3330 uF @ 100V and 470 uF @ 63V. Looks like about 75% of them are just 85*C caps, th rest are `05*C. Well worth $6.50 and I'll get to fill a lot of voids in my drawers.

Also got some things like G4521, G16722, A10619, (TVS diodes) a bunch of sjmallr stufff and the biggest bargain might be the remote IR blasters which appear to be capable of being both an IR transmitter an an IR receiver on a 6' cable. Made by Scientific Atlanta with their manual included: http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com/prodinfo.asp?number=G18081

It seems like I've never been let down by Goldmine. I also found some links to some neat surplus sites: http://www.arrickrobotics.com/surplus.html and this site is hard to describe: http://www.sciplus.com/

 

What types of name brands? Like CapXon? Or like Rubycon?

 

You there?

 

Still wondering about what's in there. Thanks.

 

Nice find, cheapskate. You could have gotten the same capacitors from Digikey for $200. You probably already know about http://www.allelectronics.com/ and http://www.westfloridacomponents.com/ then. A list of good surplus dealers is a great resource for hobbyists and students. Someone I've been helping on another forum is eBay-centric and has done very well getting electronic stuff from there.
