   Here in Silicon Valley, the total price for all of those would be less than   
   US$2 for 50 WVDC at a retail hobbyist store (and even less for lower   
   voltages).  If you do not already have them in your junque box, and because   
   this is a one-time event, I would    
   just replace them all.  Even at hobbyist rates, your time is probably worth   
   more than that.
