I have some 16 volt 1200uf 105c caps here that read 1206uf an 0.0 ohm ESR A bag of 10 volt 470uf that read 450uf and 0.27 ohm ESR (2% vloss) Have a 200uf 400 volt cap reads 213uf and 7.5 ohms ESR and a 8000 mfd

75 volt with a 1.9 ohm esr and 1.3% vloss

Just for data points and trying out my new component tester.
