Re: [TCML] HVStuff.com ?



Hi John, I got my caps here:

http://www.amazing1.com/capacitors.html

"Individual 1.5u 2kv MMC Capacitor"

At they time they were significantly cheaper than the CD actual part, and
supposedly test the same (I have not confirmed that yet under high load).
They are bigger and square instead of cylindrical - but the values of all
of mine are within rated specs.
