littlejackhorner Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Sadly, I was recently mailed a pair of vintage AA crossovers, a couple of whose oil cans (thankfully the 2 uF's and not the 13) tore off in transit and leaked their guts out into the cardboard. The packaging left much to be desired, so the situation seemed avoidable - not the best size priority box and packaging used for those stand up oil cans... Would a "sticky" on how to properly mail a pair of AA's (by priority mail using a standard size box?) and the current costs be in order? The same goes for any of these speaker parts really...

tigerwoodKhorns Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Be really careful depending on the year of the caps. Older ones (prior to 1979) can have PCB's which is harmful cancer causing stuff. https://www.epa.gov/pcbs/learn-about-polychlorinated-biphenyls-pcbs#release Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have not heard or read PCBs mentioned in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerwoodKhorns Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 It is always mentioned in Phase I site assessments for real property. Usually if there are above ground power lines, like to see the transformers marked as "no PCBs" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
