I'm looking for information, opinions and experience concerning the best choice for replacements for Elna Duorex capacitors.
I've searched diligently for a data sheet for these, as well as a general search here at AK. And found little to nothing.
I'm still completely unsure about the main attributes of these caps. Are they low-leakage? Or low ESR? Or High ripple? Or a combination of high ripple/low ESR?
No manufacturer uses premium higher cost caps just for grins and giggles so obviously they have a specific special attribute needed for them to be used instead of general purpose caps.
In the past I've just been guessing and used Nichicon KZ or Elna Tonorex. But perhaps a low-leakage like a Nichicon KL would be more appropriate?
I would like to stop guessing and be able to make some informed choices, hence this post.
Thanks in advance to anyone that has any info to share,
James
