1000 uF Capacitor?
i just received my zenith screen in the mail and it has a 1000uF Capacitor attached to a component near to where you put the 5v. is it okay for me to remove this?

It is used to smooth out the power fluctuations. I leave mine on because without it there are usually wavy lines on the screen.
