Mystery Meat 180n film cap

[ac30irons]

I am going to be building this one soon, however, for the life of me I can’t find 180n caps from any of the main suppliers. Would a 150 or 220 do the job ?

thanks for this, shipping is a touch much for a few capacitors to the UK

150 or 220 is fine if it's gonna be a pain to source

you can also stack caps in parallel if you wanna put a 150n and a 33n together to make 183nF

Will have to see what the space is like on the board. Thank you

Shipping is too heavy when only ordering a few bits. I have a decent stock now of common parts. Every now and the something left field pops up

If there’s room on the other side, just leave the leads long on the back side and add the “filler cap” back there. I do this a fair amount with caps.

Bloody great idea. I don’t have the boards yet, delivery from US to UK takes an age. I’ve got some from, errreeeee AliExpress to test. If they are rubbish, I will go with this.
