well If we try to use them it will be with utmost safety and will enclose
them completely, with a large squirell cage fan for ventilation.

I found out that some "Glassmike" caps are designed for only dc filtering
and others are for ac/pulse discharge.

The problem is these caps must outdate the Capacitor Products website
since the designation letters in the model number dont match up with any
there.

Thanks
