I think I sent you a heavy current cap to be used as a feedthrough for filament
voltage, didn't I? Don't really remember.
I think that idea of getting a proper motor capacitor at a supply shop is a
good one.
Those caps cause a phase shift between windings on a motor, so one winding
pushes and the other one pushes a little later. So they need to be able to
take a bit of current. On a rotor we can probably get away with a lossy one
but on a blower that thing has to work continuously, so best to get a nice
modern, efficient one is my two cents.
