Yes, I'll probably always to the repairs(email me first though so I
can check and make sure I have supplies).  Materials($5/per I think?)
and shipping, plus whatever you feel is fair for the time.  Two
disclaimers- one is that the PCB can be damaged, which is much more
difficult to repair.  I mention a trick in the PDF off my
homepage(hold it up to the light, look through to examine the traces)
but that only works with the caps already removed.  Second is I can't
really test the unit, but if it's still busted(or fails), I'd be
happy to do the repair again free, as long as you pay shipping.

They use the same -set- of values, although I think they -might- be
in different quantities or in different positions.  If you're DIYing,
just pay extra attention and check each before removal against my
chart.

Hmm, no- if I recall, the amps with the plug-in connection on the PCB
are the only units affected; the soldered units seem to be fine.
