    Where can I buy capacitors in US :confused:

    I'm looking for a 6.3V 470uf cap.

    Not only can I not find anywhere online that sells what I'm looking for, but I don't have a clue what brick stores would sell them either

    If theres any chain stores in the US that sell capacitors that would be awesome if you could post up...hopefully there is as I'd like to pick it up tomorrow before i put the board in the case....

    any help here would be great

    I live in Florida if that is any relevance.

    Thank You for Your Help.

    ok I know the caps at radioshack aren't exactly Rubycon Golds, but it is local and in stock....my question is....the cap is rated for 35Volts but has the same capacitance....

    from what I've read that is OK because it just means that the cap is designed to handle a larger current than i'll be sending through it....maybe that will be good considering it's lower quality???

    heres a link: link to cap

    IMPORTANT QUESTION: how do I know which lead is POS and which is GND...also on the board the solder spot is a circle with once half WHITE and the BLACK....WHITE=POS? BLACK=GND?........are caps labeled on the bottom?
