Kip, I hope that you don't end up in a wheelchair someday....

To the OP...I assume that you are disabled, since this is a wheelchair
charger. Did the person who looked at your charger quote you a price? If
so, why don't you have him repair it? IMO, you 'might' get by with the
original capacitors.

Perhaps there is a non-profit or other organization, such as a technical
school, in your area which could do the repair for the price of parts, or
grant you the repair/replacement funds.

OTOH, if you can get a new charger for $115--assuming it's not just more of
the same--that might be the way to go.
