These are High Temperature, Bipolar radial capacitors made by Nichicon, a reputable Japanese brand.  These are new capacitors.
Nichicon's EP series are robust capacitors for applications that require a non-polarized (bipolar) capacitor.  Unlike most bipolar electrolytic capacitors, these are rated to a maximum temperature of 105C instead of 85C.

to see a lower priced, high quality polarized alternative.
Nichicon EP are closely related to the Nichicon VP series, which are marketed for use in entertainment electronics such as audio amplifiers.  The difference is that the EP series has a higher temperature rating and associated endurance.
These capacitors are sold in sets of 4.  To get 8 capacitors, you would buy 2 of these "items".
I have a variety of capacitor values for sale -

Manufacturer
Nichicon
Series
EP
Polarity
Non-polarized
/ Bipolar (due to how they are constructed, nonpolar electrolytics are often referred to as "Bipolar")
Capacitance
10uF
Max Voltage Rating
25V
This is the maximum voltage that the capacitor is rated to tolerate.  It is safe to replace a lower rated original, such as a 16V rated cap.
Temperature Rating

C
Diameter
5mm
Lead Spacing
2.0mm
Body Height
11mm
Rated Endurance
1,000hrs at 105°C  (much higher at realistic temperatures)
Endurance scales dramatically with reduced temperature.  Taking the 105°C rating into account, these have higher effective endurance than most 85°C rated alternatives of this size.
As a rule of thumb, capacitor endurance roughly
doubles
for every 10°C reduction in temperature.
At an operating temperature of 85°C, the estimated endurance would be about 4,000hrs.
For comparison, the similar Nichicon VP capacitors are rated for 2,000hrs at 85°C.
The same scaling continues at lower temperatures.  At 65°C, the Nichicon EP would be estimated at 16,000 hours.
At any given temperature, these Nichicon EP would be estimated at double the endurance of the VP series.

All capacitors can be combined to save on shipping.  Please use eBay's "Add to Cart" button at the top of each listing to make a combined order.
Shipping is only charged once per entire order.
Sale Policies
I accept payments via Paypal.  Credit cards can be used through Paypal.  Payment must be received within 7 days.  I will make an effort to provide good communication and to ship the item promptly when I receive payment.
Sales Tax
eBay will add sales tax during checkout if your state requires it.
Combined Shipping
Shipping is the same flat amount regardless of how many items are in your order.  The highest shipping charge shown for any single item will be the total shipping charge for your entire order.  You only pay the shipping charge for one item and all additional items in your order will ride for free.   Please make sure to add all the items to your order first before paying, that way eBay will automatically combine them when you pay.
The easiest way to do this is by using the "
Add to Cart
" button.  After you have added all desired items to your cart, then check your "My eBay" page and there will be a link to pay for the combined order with combined shipping.
Using "
Add to Cart
" gives you the opportunity to preview the total charge before committing to the transaction.
Returns
Items can be returned within 14 days of receipt only if they are
unused
and in the same condition as you received them.  The refund would cover the original purchase price with outbound shipping and sales tax.  It would not cover return shipping, Customs, or other expenses.  In other words the refund would equal the total amount of your original invoice that was paid to me.  Please use a delivery confirmation service, and contact me before returning an item so I will be aware of it.
Shipping Options
I will ship to the United States, Canada, Australia, and APO/FPO addresses.
- Signature Confirmation will be required on delivery for orders where the total payment (including all items, tax, and shipping) is 0 or more.  This is required by Paypal policy.
US buyers have 2 shipping options:
First-Class Parcel Mail
The most economical option. Your capacitors will be physically protected and shipped via USPS First-Class Parcel.
The delivery speed of this shipping method is usually reasonably quick, but it is inconsistent.  You will receive a notification when your order has shipped.  Please allow up to about 1 week of transit time for your order to arrive. If it has not arrived after 7 days, please contact me.
Priority Mail
Your capacitors will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail.  This is recommended if you need faster delivery.
Canada and Australia
Canadian and Australian shipments usually take 2-3 weeks to arrive, mostly depending on Customs.  Items will be shipped out promptly after receiving cleared payment.  I will declare the item value as the item price (without shipping).  International buyers are responsible for any import taxes that may be due when you receive the item.
Canadian and Australian purchases will ship as follows:
First-Class Mail International
Your capacitors will be shipped via USPS First Class Mail International.  Delivery time is hard to predict, it may take anywhere from 2-4 weeks.  Occasionally international packages may suffer long delays in Customs.
Shipping is the same flat amount regardless of how many items are in your order.  Additional items in your order will ride for free.  Please make sure to
add all the items to your order first before paying
. The easiest way to do this is by adding your items with the "add to cart" option. This way eBay will automatically combine the items into a single transaction with combined shipping when you pay.  If there is any problem with the total, let me know and I can fix the invoice.
For simplicity, I charge a fixed amount for this shipping method, rather than attempting to calculate it per-order.  This exceeds the postage price on smaller orders.  This is partly to account for the cost of packaging and also to justify the time required to prepare International packages.
I take prompt shipping seriously and will ship within 1 business day once cleared payment is received.  Note that Paypal eChecks can cause a significant delay before they clear.  Typical Paypal payments do not have this delay and will ship promptly, I'm only referring to eChecks.
I cannot ship on weekends or postal holidays
(the local Post Office is closed on both Saturdays and Sundays).
Saturday shipping
is sometimes possible for domestic shipments, if I receive
cleared
payment by 10PM Pacific Time on Friday evening.  That gives me the necessary lead-time to arrange for a postal pickup.
However, postal regulations don't allow this for international packages.
Thanks for looking!
