Why is there no love for Prima Luna?

Aberyclark I remember Ronco which was right up there with Popiel. Never fell for the pocket fisherman though.

Cincyhound....I thought Popiel founded Ronco...I could be wrong. The pocket fisherman was a hit with some. My buddy, who was into fishing,  tells a story when him and another buddy were teenagers. They drove to a local lake and my buddy had a big Zebco fishing rod/reel. Fancy set up. My other buddy just has his grandpa's pocket fisherman. Guess which one had fish biting all day.

Aberyclark I think you are correct. Ron Popeil was involved with both. Slicing, dicing and thousands of julienne fries..,,,,,,

@tablejockey ,  I think that photo you linked to caused me confusion before.  PL lists Mundorf capacitors yet the photo has DuRoche or SCR caps I think.  I also think PL switch from DuRoche to Mundorf at some point. 

At any rate, at one point (a year ago) I opened mine up to do some cleaning and take a look around. I thought swapping caps was tougher than it should be because the case was really stuffed with parts. Maybe I'll open it again and take a look.  

I, too, wanted to upgrade caps.  I have no issue with PL making decisions to limit part cost--they all do it.  

I would love to use these Polish caps -- they are moving into the radar out there and have gotten more expensive. https://www.partsconnexion.com/miflex.html. I think Don Sachs uses these too.
