say would you know any alternitives to the 1381?
I've looked everywhere and can't find it
perhaps you know an alternitive?
thanks again

But then again, there's the thing about using a cap which has a lover
voltage rating than the 1381. This has been a topic before, but the point is
the cap - say a Panasonic gold cap - has a rating of 2.5V. It can however be
pushed to around 4V (according to Dave H). So while it may be working it's
lifetime will then (rapidly?) decrease.
