That appears to be a Sanyo OSCON 16SVP180M rated at 16V 180uf. It is available at Newark Electronics (http://www.newark.com/jsp/search/productdetail.jsp?SKU=98K5960&CMP=AFC-OP&CMP=AFC-OP)

I still need this capacitor!

I am not paying 3.25 for the part, then 20 for handling and then 8 for shipping.


Anyone else have a line on this capacitor?

For caps I go here 90% of the time: www.badcaps.net - but they don't have your capacitor.

But ebay (my second choice) does and looks like you can get them at a decent price:

Looks like on ebay, they are all from China, so if you don't mind waiting a month to get them, go for it.

It's kind of a moot point now, but Mouser and Digikey are good suppliers of caps in the US... much better than Chinese suppliers on eBay, IMO. The price can be a little higher than the cheapest ones you find on eBay, but they also don't take a month to arrive, and there's no risk of getting fakes.
