Never really understood the desire to put these very large SMT can style electrolytic caps on PCBs. Especially when there are very obvious through hole parts already in the design. The SMT pads for these big caps are simply not mechanically strong enough to withstand shake, shock, vibe and other reliability testing. I suppose if it’s going in a design that will never move once it’s powered on….but you still have to ship it to its destination.
I put a 1206 tantalum cap on top to give you a better perspective

That’s very big but my girlfriend says it so small
Bloody skyscraper that is!
