I try very hard to match physical size and since, as has been noted, that
usually means higher working voltage, it's not a negative. If you're
preserving something as an historical artifact, be sure to document what
you've done! Otherwise, someone will be really confused 10-20 years from
now when

If I go up to 25V I can get 16mm diameter which is the size of the old
ones.

Hi folks,
Looking at the PSU of my Lisa's ProFile after it died gracefully not so long
back and it obviously needs new caps since one of the 1000uF 16V ones has
bulged badly. While I'm replacing that one I'll do the 47uF 250V ones too.
And the mains f
