New Capacitor help

My capacitor took a **** on me the other day. Anyone have any good ones they would recommend. I'm not very knowledgable about capacitors and which brands have better quality.

I would also say not to get one and just add another battery. But if thats not what you want to do then dont. Do as you wish but i would listen to pdub.
