The pictures were taken with an iPhone 13 plus in macro mode. All iPhones 13 and above have this feature. It's amazing! I had an LED light adding a bit of fill as well.

I had a 25V 470uF low ESR capacitor spare and I soldered it onto the clipped leads of the old cap because access to underneath the main board was too difficult.

Panasonic ES15 blown caps?

I have noticed in some online pics and videos the case on the so called earlier units is gray in color. Mine is black and metal. Is this the difference?

I took a break from video tape archiving (my JVC S-VHS machine died) but now as I try and find a new VCR, I'm reading that the older versions of the Big Voodoo TBC10's are better than the later...

I just bought a Big Voodoo BVTBC10 off eBay and I'm very happy with it. I know others have had issues with them but I made an offer (gamble:praying:) of $150 and it was accepted (I think I could've...
