Re: It's time to go full Karna Kay

At one time Russian capacitors were highly thought of.

I have a pair of 4uf 630V PIO (although in this case the P in PIO is not paper).

They are almost identical to the Ebay listing below but mine are +/- 5%

If suitable for your needs I would donate them to your project. :)

The "who is online" section used to say how many were online, and name the registered users.

It seems not to name the registered users now, is it me or has the facility been withdrawn ?
Thanks to Jack (Nick) this question has been answered.

Re: General health matters.



I'd be more surprised if your blood pressure did not fluctuate throughout the day.

I believe doctors/hospitals can loan out the sort of device you seek.


My pharmacy loans the 24hr monitoring bp machine (no charge) if GP asks for it and you get your meds through that pharmacy.

I went caffeine free for a few years by drinking Rooibos (red bush) as it's naturally caffeine free.

Re: Zero emission road vehicles.


The downside is that depending hon how much power you want, it will only do between 2 and 20 laps of Silverstone GP (3.66 miles).


If one were experienced enough two laps of Silverstone on full power would be absolutely thrilling.

I doubt if I could handle it on it's lowest power setting, but I ...

Re: Zero emission road vehicles.

I have seen clips of this car at Goodwood, but I did not know anything about it, I do now. :)

Am I missing something ?

GM70 is 20v @ 3A = 60W x 2 = 120W
