Hi I am working on a Hacker Herald RP30 I want to replace (C19) a 300uf axial electrolytic not sure of the voltage as its rubbed of but I assume it can't be more than 25v and it may even be 10v.It seems though they are like gold dust and if you find one its worth almost as much!! The standard modern capacitors come as 220uF or 470uF would one of these rated at 25v be OK?

regards

Kev
