We have been talking about the danger of having too much capacitance in the power supply filter capacitor. I just read that large capacitor banks are used to fire off nuclear bombs. That puts takes the discussion to a new level. Also, I wonder if carrying a large electrolytic around might be violating some federal or state law about having possession of bomb making equipment? I can just see some prosecutor demonstrating the power of a charged 300 ufd @ 10,000 volt cap - especially if the owner was a cb operator. 73, Colin K7FM _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
