Wrong again Rich. The 381LX series is rated at 105C. I do wish you could
get a few simple facts straight.
You read info and pricing on the 380LX series.

The CDE are rated at the same as Panasonic, they will FAX you a data
sheet if you ask which BTW goes into a lot more technical detail than
DigiKey.

I have used the 381LX in many conventional amp repairs and they run cool.
I do not believe I would want to use them, Panasonic or others of a
similar nature in a 10KV 3A supply. There I would use nothing less than
the best Computer Grade or Oil Filled.
