Default CC 10 Amp Bec

Hey guys, the capacitor broke off my CC BEC 10 amp and I'm looking for a replacement. Does anyone know which part number and where I can get one? Or is the CC 10 so cheap it doesn't make it worthwhile to replace the capacitor?

Get an identical one from Radio shack and solder it in.

Thanks I thought about radio shack just needed something to go by.
One wire broke off flush with the can so I know there is no need trying to solder that back on using the original.

I would match the specifications. Probably a ultra low esr cap but not sure for that.

These guys are good for parts. http://www.digikey.com/

I may have found one after talking with castle today. This one has every single thing that the tech mentioned.

25V 22UF Aluminium Radial Eletrolytic Low ESR Capacitro http://www.parts-express.com/22uf-25...4b84cf0%3A0000
With a magnifying glass I can see 25v and 10 uf on the old one and +105degree C FM

This one has the same specs as the old one.
I think I'll get one and try it.
Its cheaper than a new BEC.

Might also pick up some rectifier diodes to build step down regs with.
