Would there be any issue in substituting the 1uf electrolytic caps/.68uf tantalum cap with 1uf film caps/.68uf film cap? Asking because film caps is all I currently have in those values.

I tried doing a search to find the answer but no luck. I do apologize if this has been covered before

As long as they are not too physically big to fit on the PCB they will work fine.

Thanks for the reply. Populated the PCB and looks like the film caps fit ok. I had to bend and reform the leads on the 1uf film caps so they would fit in place of the 1uf electros. Will be replacing the .68uf cap with a 1uf value to try the swell time mod.
