| andrew you knew i have a degree , we have conversed about it at length. the reason you might have forgotten is for the simple fact i dont go around telling everyone that i do have one. if everything works out in the next year or two you will probly have to put doctor in front of my name. but anyways ill see you at finals dude !!!! | |

| It was a joke iv seen those caps in action I'm 10ft away just to discharge them I'm not putting one in my car. I'm not positive but it takes one million mil farads to equal one farad it takes one million farad to equal one kvar each of those caps r 50 kvar that would be a 150 kvar bank. We put 7,620 volts to them lower the volts to 14,4 u would hafe to pull over 3,000 amps to drop your primary voltage one volt. Please correct me if I'm wrong . Damb my head hurts lol | |

| How the cap works on holding up voltage is based solely on the efficiency and the size of the cap. So you would need to know how efficient that particular cap is...80%, 90%, 95%? | |

| I don't know that but iv talked to a few engineers some say this an some say that but all say don't do it a variable spike would not be good an it would be super dangerous. | |
