I accidentally reversed the supply on a DIY BA284 / BA283 AV board for about 20 seconds. The power bypass electrolytics crackled and leaked some clear goo.
If I apply power correctly now, what are the chances of this board working at all or in part? Will I be breathing toxic electrolyte vapor? Are the transistors guaranteed to be roasted?
I will make a new board but for the moment I was hoping I could plow ahead for now just to test all of the other stuff in the project.
