Good that they are not affecting the Muse UKZ series of caps. I imagine they do decent volume there. Nichicon has too much product complexity so this is probably a natural step they are taking.

Yep, wading through the 1000's they have can be quite a chore.

The eol caps a puny. The UKZ are at times larger than original caps.

I guess it's time to Panasonic.

Using the cap selection diagram on Nichicon's site makes it easy to find the caps to use then one needs to hope they are still available. They have been eol-ing small caps for a while now. But this major deletion is going to make manufacturing, warehousing and other operations much easier with thousands NLA.
