They look a bit the same but are not. A tantalum is much rounder, like a water-drop, Sintered Aluminum, like here is used, is more square. Tantalums are very good but not for pulses that can go over the max working voltage. They used them a lot in early smps designs and that turned out to be a wrong application. Always use versions with a high enough voltage rating (like 2 times the WV), overkill does not exist in this case. If you use them correct they last a very long time.
great job,nice fix.
top job mate , could call it fixing up some ones inexperience
Looks great well made good luck
Thanks, you too!
hello
Please put Farsi subtitles too, thank you
I have no idea on how to do that.
It looks like a tantalum
It is not a tantalum, it is sintered aluminium, solid electrolyte, can work up to to 175 degrees NXP part.

@@pa4tim Okay - Looked rounded to me - I'll go have another look for squarish
