Hi Andy,

Any similar thoughts on capacitors? There are so many types out there, the
cheapest being the little ceramic discs. Would it hurt to use a more
expensive cap of different material in its place if capacitance is the same
and voltage requirements were met, and it's non-polarized?

Hi,

There is no problem with this. However, 5% carbon film resistors are general
less expensive because of their lower tolerance. Try and stick to the spec
if you can, but never use a lower tolerance component where a higher is
specified! I.e. 5% instead of a 1%, etc

Cheers,
Andy
