I remember in my high school physics class (1955) the instructor (ex-
W7TSZ) told us that it might be possible to build a ONE farad
capacitor, but it would be as big as the classroom. Times have
really changed!

In one of my trade magazines I recently read of a 3000 F
capacitor. Yes, kiloFarads. Interesting things are happening in
the super capacitor field.

No, I wrote correctly. 25 FARADS.
But, this is SMALL in comparison. Elna offers 600F @ 2.5V. About
5" long x
1.5" diameter!
YES, 600 Farads. I kid you not. I did a double-take on this
one. Really!

Do you mean 25 uF? A 25 Farad capacitor would be about the
size of
a beer barrel!!!
