OT | Solder stuff - Where to buy locally

[gcfiend]

I know there a lot of DIYers out in this community so hoping for some help in sourcing some equipment.

I need to replace a blown capacitor on a power board..

What are some stores in the east valley that carries flux, solder wick, etc. (not sure if stores like Walmart, Radioshack, Home Depot carries this type of stuff?)

Thanks in advance!

Radio shack. Frys electronics has it but that might be a drive for you. JP

Thanks Jeff! I'll give them a call.

If you have the parts. Bring them over tonight. I have the equipment

+1 on Radio Shack, but I'd also expect any store with a hardware section, from Walmart to a 'Ol Mom and Pop hardware store to have it.

Make sure the fried cap is not a secondary problem, meaning, what caused it to fry??

Yup, Radio Shack will have all you need, but may not have the proper replacement cap.

Good luck!
