Hello. I'm looking to build a resonant MOT bank, and I'm looking for capacitors for the MOTs. I don't really know where I should look for capacitors for this task (besides Digikey, Mouser, etc) or what brands I should look for and stay away from. I'm pretty sure the 2 sites I listed (and probably a few more) will be good places to look.
Also, what should I get in terms of capacitance and voltage rating? I assume that voltage should be in the 300-400VAC mark, but have no clue about capacitance.
If you could answer these questions for me, that would be great! Thanks!
EDIT 1: I'm planning on building 10 MOTs into the bank. How many capacitors would I need? Also, will I need to ballast the bank? (I assume yes.) If so, what should I use to ballast them?
