Ia> imc I've got a pair of 210,000uF -10 +100% 10VDC a 15VDC 100,000MFD and a pair of 25VDC 75,000MFD which should really read uF but that's USA manufacturers for you, they all make a nice big *BANG* when shorted after a charge<g> I did try using the 210,000uF one to maintain my sam during a short powerloss but any longer than about 0.5 second was too long for it... I eventually settled for 4 x 5AH cyclon sealed lead-acid cells;-) The largest value I've seen was 1Farad but that's just a cmos memory backup capacitor so it doesn't have the same umph of normal electrolytics. jet ___ Olms 1.60 [Evaluation] -- |Fidonet: Johnathan Taylor 2:2501/307 |Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Standard disclaimer: The views of this user are strictly his own.
