334 Joules fully charged too... planning on building the first ATX-compatible linear power supply, kc8?

After all, while it wouldn't be small, or light, or particularly efficient, it sure could offer some very tight voltage regulation...

Apologies for my stupid statement above. Linear PSU? 450V Input capacitor?

I hadn't had my coffee yet - yes, that's a good excuse.

So does your hand get vaporized if you accidently bridge the contacts on that one?

Re: $100 capacitor

if it were charged and you got across it hand to hand you likely wont live to tell about it.

Re: $100 capacitor

what about on the balls?

can you explain a bit about what it is installed in and the function of the equipment. i am sure everyone is interested.

Re: $100 capacitor

its from a large motor control from a mill.
as for the other comment it would likely eliminate the ability to reproduce.

anyone that would put it across their balls probably shouldn't reproduce anyway.

Afrotechmods has some nice videos like Fun with ultracapacitors.
