Tried to edit the post to add 'you'll need a .07uF one' and ended up with two posts for the price of one!
Must be a BOGOF deal on the forum today!
No matter - I've hidden the first of the two
Always reassuring to hear of another Rifa incident - they never stop giving! I threw away a NOS batch last year, having kept them for some 20 years. Good riddance! X2 capacitors are not rare or expensive - although with such a safety-critical component I'd recommend avoiding eBay for fear of stumbling across a fake (that's not to make any specific accusations, of course!). Although perhaps more pricey or less convenient, go for CPC or Farnell or RS or Rapid Electronics. Better safe than sorry...
Cheers,
