I'll easily agree that with better than 50 hours on it and the leakage continuing to drop that those caps have proven themselves at least in the short term . I really am hoping you get 100s of hours out of them because it would further your experiment and show that at least some do survive long term . I saw in your first post that you live in Canada and the set was stored in an attic . I know nothing about the general climate where you live so I'll ask , do attics there get Hell like hot in the summer like they do in the lower States of the US or is the climate cool enough there that the set wasn't subject to regular temperatures over 100 degrees (F) ? If the attic remained cool year round I'd bet that one difference likely made a world of difference in the condition of the caps VS a set stored the same amount of time in a Texas attic .
