    Anyone got any HVAC compressor capacitors sitting around? The one I just paid $150 for in a service call to get installed (when I could have done it for $10 - I'm a YouTube certified HVAC tech after all) last summer died and I have to keep kick-starting my air conditioner. Of course Lowes doesn't carry them and Home Despot only has them online.

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

    I'm going to have to pop out someplace tomorrow at lunchtime. Got family coming in Thursday, and I'll be damned if I'm paying $150 for 5 minutes work again.

    What size capacitor? Not sure if Ferguson carries all the sizes. I use Insco in G-town for my HVAC stuff. DA Walden just opened up shop down the street from me. And we also use Trane on Metric, and another place I forgot their name. Maybe google HVAC supply, and take the capacitor with you. Remember to discharge it before handling it.

    Amazon $10 did both mine a few months ago. If you can wait a couple days. If not, Grainger has them cheap on 290

    I'll pay $20 for a $10 part if it's high quality. I won't pay $150 for a $10 part I can install myself.

    I know all about capacitors - we used to play with microelectronic HF radio capacitors at work - charge one up and toss it to a buddy and yell "catch!" Those couldn't kill you.

    A 370v 45/5? Not fucking around with that.
