AS IS NO REFUNDS. ALL SALES FINAL.
We are no longer restocking these. Our last order of these from the manufacture had too many defective parts. Therefore, to allow people who don't mind some rework to make use of them, we are selling them as is with no refunds at a significantly reduced price. The primary issue is bad solder joints. The plates are held in place by the solder. When the solder joint is bad, the plates may make contact causing them to short out. While resoldering, make sure the plates stay aligned and do not make contact through the full rotation. If you don't mind a little resoldering they are otherwise great air variable capacitors. Some of these may test ok but I am not sorting them or pre-testing them. The likely bad solder spots are shown in the below photos with read arrows. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions [email protected]
