How do you measure the capacitance of salt water caps, and the
approximate breakdown voltage of the arrays?

I had an idea if the breakdown was too low, and you don't want
to put alot in series, could you first coat the outside of the
bottle with a coat of polurethane, then apply the foil?

has anyone tried different materials other than aluminum/tin foil?
how about anything other than salt water?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
