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 t

Youre missing the point Jim and no one is expecting the cap to grenade unless it has a serious failure. OTOH a short anywhere in the HV circuit dumps all of that stored energy in a bright flash that
832 uF at 7.7 KV. No offense, but that's a waste of capacitors. I won't get into the stored energy. 73 Rob K5UJ _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com h
