Capacitor Tester???
#5

I only buy my caps from Mouser/Digikey, they do not sell caps that are likely to be defective. I trust them as small batch mfr do kit from these catalog for industrial needs.
In my 25 years of EE career here in the US and heavy use of these two (well, some Newark and Allied too) I never ever had problems with any of passive components bought from them. Not once.
And, true, many mfrs are in China, but then there is China and there is....China. Depends on who it is who manufactures it.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
