OLT was talking about this before, and how those caps overall cause damage or can fall off. Also they may cause loss of light output since they do block some of the light.

However I used a different method, and although OLT said it wouldn't last over 6 months, it has till this day (over a 8 months later).


I'm also at 183K right now too .
