Re: Capacitor bank

also how many would be safe to wire together before the wires get too hot?
i was thinking of just using the legs they have and just tacking them together but would it be better to use some thicker wire? is this more of a touch n go situation like just see how they stand up worst case scenario it just melts solder and fails? or can i pop capacitors trying it without wires? just random questions i know but all information helps greatly thanks guys

Re: Capacitor bank

each cap will be 16v 1000 uf, thats what im thinking atm as a starter tester kinda phaze can get 50 for 4$ so its not a huge investment im just curious how manyamp hours id get im looking to replace a 12v, 1.9 amp hour battery if any1 has an equasion plz post in its raw form i should be able to work it out from there

thanks

hey guys just wanting a few questions answered, is there a way to measure how much uf? would be in amp hours? cause i wanna make a capacitor bank but im trying to work out if its worth it for me

thanks for reading
