It should be possible to parallel another 5 Farad of C by adding a DC 
connector to the Gamma supply.   For higher duty cycle operations, just plug 
the added C into the new DC jack.   For lower duty cycle, the added C would 
be left unplugged.

Real estate is pretty tight inside the Gamma supply.  Probably the best 
attempt may be a coaxial DC jack and it cannot be accidentally reversed with 
the existing Molex output connector.   The Gamma supply works very well with 
the K3 and the inclusion of more C would probably make it even better under 
higher duty cycle operations.
