I've got plenty of Tektronix, HP and General Radio equipment (and even some Heathkit gear) from the 1960's and 70's that are running on their original electrolytics. Good quality caps will last quite a bit longer than that. I can only recall a handful of failures, one in a cap made in 1962...Originally Posted by takethecastle57
Besides, I'm not so sure my expiration date is 20 years from now either
