    Hi,

    I ordered and received (from amazon) the LM2596 with voltmeter buck converter.
    I ordered the 40V input version but on the one I received, input capacitor is only 35V. I assume I received the 32V version. Can I just replace the input capacitor with a 50V to make it a 40V version ? All the rest looks the same. Thanks

    Hello Andre,
    Thank you for your reply.
    The links you provide one is from amazon.uk and the other is from amazon.ca.
    We cannot ensure what the problem is.
    Could you please tell us your order ID and the FNSKU which is marked on the label attached on the package?
    Waiting for your reply.
    Best regards

    I ordered the 40V version from amazon.ca. I think they had the wrong one in stock and sent me the 35V version. I’ll replace the 35V input capacitor with a 50V and see what happens. It should run ok. This issue can be closed.

    Thanks.
