If I counted right, I've checked 60 (to date) on the Peak LCR45 (and a few on my multimeter before that).
What I see in the data (you can draw your own conclusions):
- As usual, the Japanese makes hold up best; Carli, LGU, uTx have mixed results; "DH" seem to be Damn Hopeless.
While I only have one Dain sample here, reports from others suggest that using them is indeed in vain. Iskra haven't actually fared too well either… - I have listed climatic classes in case they correlated with reliability, but I don't see any definitive trend there

- Ceramic Y caps (while I've measured a few) aren't listed, as each piece I've measured so far is OK.
- If I encounter anything with RIFA PME caps, they'll get their own page

Information is far more fragile than the HDDs it's stored on. Being an afterthought is no excuse for a bad product.
