Well yeah, your probably right. Though i cannot be certain it was connected with reverse polarity. The fact remains the cap quality has been said to be very poor for said brand. In all likely hood it was a reverse polarity stupid mistake, i was just commenting that the caps in this supply have been known to be crap quality. So don't buy the model i did.
I'll concede it was almost certainly reverse polarity that blew them, but the fact remains you get what you pay for, and when you buy the cheapest possible option, issues like this are common. Not to say the caps would have blown under normal use, just that they don't have a good rep. Perhaps they would have lasted, assuming i did not make the mistake i did, perhaps they would fail due to poor quality.
The point, is that while it was most likely my mistake that blew them, and any cap would blow in that scenario, they used poor quality components in this supply, and i got what i paid for.
In any case, the replacement caps arrived, and i'll be installing them once i have someone (my father) with a background in electronics take a look at it first. I'll update as to if the repair was sucessful or not when we have some time to take a look at it together. Forgive my rudimentary understanding of electronic circuits, and assumptions it was the low quality components and not user error that caused the failure. The fact remains though, the caps are known to be poor quality.
