Guys, i want to replace some 47uF 400V electrolytic capacitors ( SMPS on Cine 9 ) with new ones of the same value. The problem is, they are soldering-star type and i can't seem to find them anywhere. It is safe to replace them with regular radial-leaded type ? And how to mount them on the PCB ? On the ones above, the middle pin is positive and the whole star ( 3 pin ) is negatieve. Did someone ever converted a soldering-star to radial leaded elco ?

Partsconnexion in canada has some 4 pole lytics but they are expensive. I am not sure what the polarity of the leads are tho. But a 2 lead one should be fine. Just run a jumper to the other - holes if they are not already connected via GND.

Thanks Nashou, that's all I need to know. I'll replace them with radial leaded Epcos than. Cheers.
