Capacitor sizing help, please?

[Polarbear925]

In the process of a dual Little Green Scream Machine + Kliche Mini build. I'm now to the point of assembling my parts orders, but I had one simple, stupid question...what size and lead spacing do I need for these PCBs? I can't measure the PCB's as they are still in transit. Any info helps. THANKS

Film/ceramics have ~5mm lead spacing, electrolytic caps have ~2.5mm.

That helps immensely. THANKS

But, if you do ever end up with wrong lead spacing, the Flat Nose Pliers (from your mandatory Mini Pliers Set) are your friend for easy adjustment.

Make sure to check other sizes are well. When I started I got an electrolytic that was WAY too big despite being the 2.5mm spacing.

Get big ones. They have more tone
