I think Im coming down with the lurgy too. Im curious though, the old capacitor worked perfectly on the hvmaxx system (2700uf 25v low esr), so why the 'upgrade'? I found a pair of said caps was a good upgrade, if a little chunky to mount, so perhaps the tech guys (when they've recovered) might think about going back to a single larger cap, say a ~4000uf item, that would be more than adequate and less tempermental it seems compared to the new unit with little voltage-clamp things on the mini PCB (zenor diodes? I forget what they're called).
