[QUOTE="chrisc, post: 896728, member: 746"] Capacitors, made from rolled paper/plastic and aluminium, can subtly change their electrical characteristics over time. A capacitor might be brand new and newly installed, but the action of feeding electric current through it for period, will change its characteristic. Whether this occurs over a few days, weeks or months depending what its purpose is in the circuitry The change today is towards solid state capacitors, which in theory cannot change anything.
