It's been so long since I used a soldering iron I can't remember some of the basics.

Can I safely replace a 1500UF 6.3V capacitor with a 1500UF unit rated at 16V? Some vague memory from my youth tells me its OK as long as they meet or exceed the stock minimum voltage, but then again, I may be nutz.:D
